If I hunt at home anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour.
If I stay in state, up to two days (it's a BIG state!)
If I want to hunt whitetails I spend a day and a half flying to NY.

Takes me 2 hours going (3:00AM-5:00AM). At least 3-3.5 hours coming home (Manhattan traffic).

I will drive up to 4 hours away. Of course I may only do that once a year. Most of the time I am driving 45 minutes on the short hunts to an hour and a half on the longer hunts. I do this all in one day. My buddy has a cabin two and a half hours away and we can stay overnight there.

Used to be a 4 hour drive to Buffalo County from Northern WI. Since my rights have run out on the farm I used to hunt, I now travel 800 miles to Northeastern Kansas every November for 10 days. Washington County.
