Worth hunting??
 

Well now that daylight savings time ends, it gets dark around 535 in southern wisconsin. I get out of school at 3 so i wouldget in thw woods would be 4. Is an hour and half worth hunting. I think it is especially during the rut.

My vote is to hunt anytime you can in the next couple weeks.

I always believed the last hour of daylight was prime time. I would just be as quiet and unobtrusiveas you can going in.

I have some "late stands" that I go to in situations like yours. Stands that I have minimal chances of coming across and jumping deer. If that's your only way to get in the woods then I say go for it. The alternative is not very good. I would be careful on which stands you choose to hunt though. IMO you don't want to go to a stand where you have a chance of running into the whole herd in your area [:-].

I agree with all the above. Absolutely you should get out and give it a shot. Not going to kill one at home on the couch. Get out there as soon as you can and maybe don't go in as far as you normally would. The deer should be up and moving and getting ready to feed. Be careful and try not to run into them headon as you go to your stand site. Good luck.

My advice is to spend every waking minute you can on stand cuz if yor not there you can't kill'um!;)

hey man im in the same position. but the way i look at it is you cant kill one from your couch, so get on out there bc you never know whats gonna walk by. Goodluck man

1.5 hours of hunting 4 times a week is like 6 hours! I say heck yeah hunt! You never know when those deer will come across your stand...I have killed deer seconds after pulling my bow up in the stand and have killed them after sitting all day, shooting only in the last 20 minutes of daylight....best of luck.
