Default Time of day your deer was shot

I see alot of people on here saying that it is best to hunt in the morning others say afternoon and evening. So what time of the day did you shoot your deer?

I shot my doe at 4 pm.

This season....I've shot one at first light....one at last light.....and 5 more in between there. I don't think there is a "Best" time (morning vs. evening). I believe my spots change throught the year (better morning vs. evening). Right now....mornings are really good.
