I am going BlackPowder hunting and deer hunting for the 1st time ever. I was wondering if I go early in the morning like pheasant and quail. Or do I go in the evening? Do I spend all day out there? What does this SWKS rookie do??? Thanks

I am confused...?

I am going black powder hunting for deer for the first time ever. I don't know when the best times to go are. In the morning, in the evening, or should I plan on spending all day out in the stand? Does this help?

i would say plan to hunt all day in the stand but thats just what i do, i know some people that only hunt in the morningings and in the evenings but i also see a good amount of deer movement around 11:30-1:00 so i stay out all day

Thanks!!!

when shotgun hunting i stay out all day long and just come in for lunch. when bowhunting i only hunt mornings and evenings but mostly evenings.

i forgot, welcome to the forums swksrookie!

oh boy, your going hunting for the first time and dont know how or when to hunt? who is taking you hunting? Are u going by yourself? Please tell me someone with experience is taking u![]

Like my grandfather always said, the best time to hunt is when you can. The best place is where you can.

Just go. When you feel like you've had enough take a break. Then go again. Repeat until you have your deer, or the season ends.

You will learn all the other stuff along the way. A partner helps, but you don't need one. As long as you're enjoying yourself you're successful.
