RE: Midday hunting stands
Deer actually pattern hunters, so the mature bucks, usually move from 10-2. I shot a nice 8pt at 2p.m on the dot last year and he was cruisin for the ladies. I would hunt a good thicket, where a doe could bed, and buck could corral her in. They like to keep em locked up around nov 2-18 of the month. Hunt the thickets and outside the bedroom, and stay on stand all day. Hope this helps, go get em!
