If you have deer coming near your stand on a travel corridor 30 min before dark at 6:30, then yea I'd say its worth it if you can get there by 5:30.


I know where there are deer bedding down, and I can get between that and the food sources without bumping any. I have an area that the only bad wind for my entry would be a west wind (which is rare). Anything else is blowing my scent over a bayou or away from where the deer are.

Also a lot of hog sign, and I probably have a better shot at hogs in there than deer.

530 is fine, get in there and get settled. 80% of the time they are gonna move the last 30 minutes of light anyway

Set up a camera where your deer are at, and check general movement patterns. I have used one of those isolunar phone apps with okay results.

I'll agree with everyone else, you aren't gonna shoot anything sitting on the couch
