One in 21 chance!

I talked to my buddy about hunting all day every day that week of the rut when things are crazy. When you go on a pay hunt, that's exactly what you do until you kill your buck.

I don't understand why so many hunters haven't embraced the idea of deer hunting all day, instead of only early mornings & late evenings.

Many the same hunters will go on all day hikes, year-round, etc.

I often find an all-day sit to be "therapeutic" for me, and a very enjoyable & "easy" way to spend a day.

Other people do yoga and things like watch TV all day.

I'd rather spend a day forest bathing.

November and December I hunt all day when possible.

Because it's incredibly boring. I just can't sit still that long.

Thats whats so great about it! No phone, no computer, nobody wanting anything, noone aggravating the crap out of you over anything! Just peace and quiet with plenty of time to reflect, relax, and recoup!!!!

I can do that much more enjoyably back at camp.

Same here. I know in my gut I'd be more successful if I just sat longer, but I guess I don't want it bad enough. So I play the highest odds I can play by sitting morning/evening and accept that I'm not getting every opportunity, only most of them.

This exactly. I'm an odds player. I look at good data, find the best times and locations to hunt, and then play the odds. When/where will my efforts be maximized? But I also realize I'm missing opportunities at other times. That's just the way I play the game.

I cant wait until I retire so that I can hunt like crazy for just 3 or 4 weeks out of the year, particularly on weekdays instead of just weekends.
