How early do you get into your stand?

I like to be settled in my stand an hour before shooting light. As for the evenings depends on whaty time of the year. Pre and Post rut by 2:30 or 3:00. During rut I rarely leave the stand and usually try to sit all day.

Oh, another reason why I like to give myself plenty of time is because sometimes unexpected things happen, like when you are pulling your bow up and the rope gets hung on something or you drop your release ( not that this has ever happened to me,lol), you still have time to deal with these problems and get set up and have a good hunt.
