That statement right there proves that they're misnamed, "Experts". Next week as their deadline for their stories approach, these same "Experts" will be telling you you have to sit int the tree all day from sun up to sun down. When the next months deadline draws near they'll be writing an article telling you that afternoon hunts are not productive. The next month, only mid day hunts are productive. These guys all have to come up with a new twist in their stories to have some variety. Also they're all attempting to come up with something different hoping that they will be annoited "THE EXPERT".

Heck, even if the guy was sincere in making a statement like that, it may not be true in your woods or because of the way you hunt. AND, it may very well be true in your neighbors woods with the way he hunts. If you're only hunting cultivated field edges and have to run deer out walking in in the morning it would be true, morning hunts suck. If on the other hand you can circle through "Sleepy Hollow" or "Rattlesnake Swamp" and be waiting for them to come off the same field, well it just may be mornings are the best. You make your own luck and experiences, not some expert. Incidently, we hunt almost exclusively in the mornings. I wish someone had told me years ago it would be unproductive.
