Default Morning hunts

My observation of this rut is as follows. I have hunted every day since Oct. 29th. Following Halloween it was evenings only (due to work) I saw a few does in the evening and 1 shooter buck but all deer were after shooting light. I hunted this morning Nov. 6th and two buddies were out in my stands also. We all saw bucks, we all had deer near shooting range, My buddies both saw shooters (outside the ears) and I had a six and a small 8 walk nearby. My diagnosis is that the deer move later in the evening, throught the night and eventually wander back to bedding areas around 8:30 am. The amount of deer moving this morning has made my evening hunts seem like an effort in futility. Anyone else having similar movement patterns. I wish I worked 11 am to 7pm. I might be tagged out by now.
