Just curious, around this time of year. What time do you usually slip back into the woods for your evening hunt?
What time do you go in the afternoon

When the weather is right like it is today, I like to be in the tree about 3 hours before sunset.
Depends on what kind of mood momma is in
Just kidding. Whenever I wake up from my nap

Really just depends on the area. I've got one spot the deer move early and need to be in there 3-3.5 hours before sunset. Another spot 2 hours is fine.
Usually 3-3.5 hours before sunset. If the weather and conditions are right, maybe 4-4.5 hours.

"... go back..." huh? I go before dawn and stay until dark.

Probably a little earlier than normal today. They're moving. I had a young buck running around harassing a doe with two fawns for about an hour this morning. During that time a mature buck walked in behind me following my entrance trail. I use no scent control whatsoever so I know he had to have smelled me, but he didn't care. He bedded up in some thick undergrowth behind me but left pretty quickly when he heard the young buck grunt. He completely ignored my grunts lol. I have video of him. I can't say for sure if it was my target buck or not, but I really thought so when I seen him. Now with that said our minds play tricks on us when rubbernecking over our shoulder to look at a deer. You can see the antler shining at the bottom of the big white oak. My target buck has almost 6" brows and I can't see them in the video but as you can see my video situation is very mediocre thanks to my actual phones outward camera not working. I have a bad habit of watching the phone screen rather than the deer when videoing. It was pretty hard to hold the phone steady though!
