They never came out any earlier or later. On my farm it seems most of the deer are nocturnal and I hardly ever see any in the morning and see most of my deer at night. So last year when it got darker earlier I just never saw anything. I shot my last deer of the season last year around Halloween.

They patterned you so they changed their time to be out and about...The key to seeing deer all season is to be able to keep from spooking them while hunting...
