My goal is in stand by 3:30.

If I am leaving work during the week, I am happy to be in the stand by 4.

Yall hunt a lot differently than we do here. A few years ago I was hunting in south Alabama on a friend's place. I was on the stand before daylight and didn't make it out of the woods until after dark. The rest of the gang was waiting on me at the cabin and said they were worried that something happened to me. They had left their stands about 9 am and went back about 4 pm. I told em that I'm used to staying out all day and not coming in until it's too dark to see the front sight on the rifle. They never stayed on stand all day. Some of the biggest and smallest deer I have ever killed have been in the middle of the day...

Depends on a lot of stuff. Daylight savings time, is a big one.

But, I usually hunt until at least 11am and try to be back in the stand by 3pm at the latest, this time of year. It will change to 2pm once the time changes.

Eh, hop in the boat about 20 minutes before dark, ride down and look out into the field and see if anything is there. If one is there shoot it dependent upon how we feel. If not hop back in the boat and go sit back by the fire.

Begin when I wake up from my post-morning hunt nap and end when the spotlight battery dies.

I can't sit in the same spot that long. Especially not in an uncomfortable arse stand.

I'm usually on the stand for a half hour before daylight (or try to be) and get off at 10 am give or take. In the evening I get out there at 2:30 or 3 and stay til dark. During the rut sometimes I'll go out at 8 or so and stay til like 1 or 1:30. I've also hunted a stand til 8, left and went get breakfast, went out somewhere else around the time everybody else got off the stand, stayed til 1 or so, left to go eat, then go out with everyone else for the evening hunt. Buck I shot last year I decided on a whim on the way to the camp to go out as soon as I got out there. Hit the stand for 1, saw first buck at 1:30, laid next one down at 2

I usually get out there around 3. I will sometimes get off the stand around 11, eat a snack, and move to another stand just to stretch my legs
