atleast 20-30 minutes before light

Don't get out there to late, your defeating the purpose then and could just as well stay home! Get your hinder out of bed and get out there 1/2 hour before light!

I would definitely try and get in at least a half hour before first light. If not I would try to be in a stand by 9:30 and hunt the rest of the day. A lot of big boys like to get up and move between 10 and 2.

I think a lot of the super early and settled an hour before dark is overkill. Especially at this time of the year with the woods so volitile. I know it can be tough getting out of bed, try to get thier before shooting light, but don't wreck yourself or feel that all is lost if you aren't there and settled at some ridiculous early hour.

Get in when you can..I'd say if you are gonna be late, then at least wait two hours after they bed to move in...I wouldn't want to walk in when they are still on their feet and you blow the hunt right there. I would rather have them bedded down around 9am, and try to get on stand by 9:45 or so.

In my area the does are usually out and about til 10:30. Droptine, I say get out there when you can cuz you cant shoot them at home. Sounds like you're looking for excuses to sleep in.

Drag your butt out of bed!!!! It's not like your going to work. I am always in my AM standearly (sometimes to early). I like a good hour of quality quiet time b4 shooting light.
You can dream bout them in bed but they sure are tough to kill from there...GET UP!!

PS.. PM me you phone number and I will be more than happy to give you a call..

NOTE: The bucks are not really concerned about getting back to bed at this time of year. They have other things on their minds..
