Default Morning or Evening, which is better?

If you could only manage to get out once a day, which is the best hunting, mornings or evenings?

Shootemup, I bet knowbody wants to commit on that one. I'm sure all of us have taken deer both times of day but me personally, if forced to choose, would opt for the morning hunts...Fletch

Good Luck All....Fletch

Just read an article last night about that. It was on line. This is the URL http://www.bowhuntingmag.com/dynamic...ArticleID=1563

The gist of the article says that 50% of the Pope and Young bucks were taken after 4:00 PM but acknowledged that was primarily cause thats when most people hunt. Great article tho.

Hey, size may not matter but it sure IS nice!

Without any hesitation....."Mornings" have consistently over the years produced the majority of my deer!!!!!!!!!!!

I think evening are most productive and enjoyable. But.........It really depends on stand placement or which stand you choose. I have some stands you'll never see a deer in the evening and some never in the morning. You need to know the deers patterns!

PRACTICE....PRACTICE....PRACTICE......SUCCESS!

For archery I hunt more evenings and for gun more mornings.

They both are nice. I love seeing the sun come up and the woods come alive, but I also like to get off work and end the day in the woods. Now for deer, I've seen more in the evenings.

Both are good, but it would be mornings for me.
