I tend to see more deer in the mornings and for longer periods of time. Where I hunt it seems the most deer movement I see is between 8:30 and 10 am. Afternoon hunts its the last 30 min. I prefer the morning hunts the best

mornings are the best for lots of deer sightings and kills ( for me ) but i killed some of my better bucks right in the middle of the day.
evenings are good but if you only give me one choice then i'm taking the mornings

That's like asking which child is prettier
I like them both I think their is not
much difference in either.
Some stands seem like evening is much better ,and for what ever reason, some stands produce year after year in
the morning.You just have to know your hunting ground
And if the Rut is in full swing you better stay
all day,you never know when you will hear that grunting noise

I prefer mornings in muzzleloader and first rifle. Evenings the rest of the time. So, If I had to choose it would definitely be evenings. December rifle hunts in the evenings are somewhat magical at times at the farm I hunt. Evenings for bow in October are just as special.

I usually see deer longer in the mornings and then right before dark in the afternoon. So I would have to say mornings.

Makes no difference to me long as I'm out there. But guess I'd choose mornings since it's a little easier doing the knife work in the daylight.
