Scientific research shows that deer are most active at dawn and dusk. You should be in your stand at least an hour before you expect to see deer. Becaue it's hard toget to your stand in the dark without spooking deer, because you can't see them, but they can see, hear and smell you, it's easier to get to your stand without being detected by hunting in the afternoon. Get to staqnds near open feeding areas 2-3 hours before sunset. If you are new at this, ask all the questions you want, I do it for a living, and I write about it and give seminars. Fire away.
