Default Time to Sit All Day?

In my opinion, I think its the time of the year to sit all day now. Anyone else agree or disagree? We have been seing an increase in scrapes. I think the bucks will start to cruise now.

I am curious what you think?

I've been sitting all day for about 30 years and have yet to get a buck with my bow. Now, I have only been bow hunting this year and as far as the sitting part goes, it's behind a desk at the office. Now I have my smart aleck comment out of theway, I plan to call in "Healthy" on Friday and sit in the stand from 4:30 AM until I can't see a dang thing at night. Everything I have heard is now is the perfect time in Iowa to get that wall hanger you've always wanted. Update will be Saturday sometime.

May your aim be true
and your arrows fly straight
May you see that monster
before it's too late!

May your kill be swift
and your prey fall near
May your wishes come true
May you get that deer!

Then thank the Lord for your bounty.

Bet yer butt!!
I live in your side door(N.E. Oklahoma)
My dad got a Buck last Saturday at 11:10am,
and he was following does!!
The buck was about 10 min behind the does on the same trail.
So I say YES!!!!!
Stay all day,most bucks will bed early and then follow the does
to their bedding area in the pre-rut.
This has been my experiance,I'm shure others will agree.

Too early in Va. One tip for some people who can't stay in their stands all day. I stay in a standfrom day light to about 1000- 1100 and than I gohunt from aground blind and have lunch and maybe a quick snooze with my ears open. Than around 1500 hrs I go to a second tree stand that I have hung. That way I don't get board watching one area all day, and I am in the woods all day long. Killed manynice bucksfrom 1100-1430 hrs. during the RUT.
