I've always heard the best times are right before sunrise, and right after sunset. I hunt where deer aren't as abundant as the Eastern states, and I seem tocome across most ofthem between 7 - 10am, and4- 7pm, so I voted in between hours. Really, i've seen them all hours of the day.

Although I love early mornings in the woods, I've seen more deer towards evening. The exception is during the rut. Middays can be very hot actionwise.

Ditto for me. Typically, the last 30 minutes really. Of my 15 deer kills....maybe 2 or 3 have been in the morning.
