I usually like to get in really early. At least 30-45 mins.This new area I'm planning to hunt has alot of palmettos. It's almost impossible to get in there quietly. Being on a WMA, I'm not supposed to cut the vegetation, and if I do, someone else is likely to find my trail and use it to their advantage. If I wait till daylight and go in, I can save alot of noise, but then I'm losing that valuable time right at sunrise. I guess I'm still up in the air for this year
