Average is going to be plenty short because the majority of my hunts are after work. I'm in a stand by 5:00 pm, it's dark in a couple hours.

I only get mornings on Saturday and then vacation. Average would be short.

I average about 3-4 hours. Every once in a while I'll pull an all day hunt, but that is rare.

It varies, obviously. But since you asked for average I would have to say 10 daily. Roughly 5:45-12:00 and 1:30-Dusk on a typical day. Of course there are days where I'll just hunt morning or evening, circumstances warrant different time tables. Then there are those all-dayers!

Morning average is about 4 hours and evening sits are 3 hours. More during the rut. Usually ALL day.
