Default Morning or Evening hunt?

If you have a choice on any given day on which you had the entire day to yourself but could only hunt one of the two... what would you prefer to hunt? Mornings or Evenings?

and why?

I would hunt the evening. Mainly because I see more deer during those times.

It would be the morning............I like being out there when a new day is waking up.....I' ve had just about the same amount of luck hunting both times of the day.......and had luck in the middle of the day also.

Mornings...it seems the big boys may have their guard down a little after a night of chasing tail.[8D]

Mornings. I have saw many more good bucks in the morning than the evening. Plus I like hunting into the daylight for tracking purposes.

During the rut without question it would be in the morning. And to be specific in a thicket with a natural funnel between 2 doe bedding areas.

I see more deer in the evening but more bucks in the morning. If the freezer is in good shape and I don' t work too late at night, ( or read posts on Hunting Net) I would pick mornings.
