RE: how long do you usually stay out on a hunt?
Early bow I hunt peak times (AM and PM). First part of ML(Oct) for whitetails I continue this trend but usually spend more times out in the evening. If chasing Mulie's I hunt am through midday during ML season. Come pre rut and rut I spend as much time out as possible -especially the rut midday is my preferred timeframe. Most of my larger deer have come between the hours of 11-3 in Nov.
