Most of our daily caribou trips are after work. Sometimes we break free a little early to get some extra time out there. I've had nearly all of my success in afternoon or night hunts, rarely, if ever in the morning.

Mostly after work, but on occasion I have went out before.

Pennsylvania's fall archery season is a scant 6 weeks, so I try to make the most of it. I'm lucky to be able to hunt just a few minutes from my house. This year I was able to hunt twice a week after work and on saturdays, plus I tried to drag myself out of bed at least 3 times a week to hunt before work...even though I may only have had the first 15 minutes of light to hunt before hustling to work. If/when I actually get lucky before work, I'm able to call in to say I'll be late. Those brief, before-work hunts have actually paid off twice in the last two years; last year when I stalked a handsome buck, and this year when I arrowed an old doe.

I don't normally huny before or after work but the one time I did this year I went out before going to work and took my biggest buck ever, a nice 9 point.

I typically get to hunt 3 evenings a week. Sometimes more sometimes less. I can hunt in the morning if I'm on something hot but it really screws up my work schedule so I don't like to.

Ive managed to bank my overtime at work so I have been able to get out morning and evening. I get out about 3 mornings a week and 5 evenings.

I get in the majority of my hunting in after work. I am fortunate to have a job where I am able to flex my hours from time to time so that I can get in a good couple hours after work 2-3 times per week.

I work 8:30 to 5:00 everyday, so I get to do neither. The only time I get to go is on a day off or weekends. (I took 10 days off this past bowseason).


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 10:35 AM.
