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...


All of this. I can't believe how early some of yal get out of the stands

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
