Hey Rookie, I hunted one of my field edge stands on saturday when I killed my buck.I arrived to my hunting ground around 4:45 and was set up and ready to go about 5:00 PM. Saw a few does and a small eight point shortly after I settled in. However, the buck I shot came in at last light. As mentioned earlier, if you are hunting a field edge it doesn't hurt to be a little late. However, any other setup I wouldn't want to arrive any later than 4:00 or so. Keep in mind, if you want to hunt at all, sometimes you have to do what you have to do. Even if that means getting to your stand later than normal.
