What time does everyone get to the Woods/Mornings?

[Appleman]

Just curious!! I get there around 5:30

 

[ImThere]

Depends on weather and which location some spots i enter the woods at 4 and sit in the stand around 5 after a long walk and dressing for the sit other places 5 will get it done if it is hot I will take extra time to walk in as long as im settled in 30 min to shooting light im happy

The spot I've hunted this weekend has me walking across about 500 yards of cut soybeans. To keep from jumping deer in the field and stepping on bean stalks, I leave my truck as soon as I can see. It's worked very well for me. If I'm hunting woods, I like to be settled in 30 minutes before shooting light.

 

[Backstrapcrazy]

30 mins. to 1 hour depending on how fast my Dad is moving in morning. I do not complain , because i love the time i spend with him.

 

[rdevalco]

i hunt wma's mostly so we can't set foot onto the wma until 1 hour before sunrise and we have to be off the wma 1 hour after sunset by law...so I usually get there < 1 hour but definitely sitting somewhere by 1/2 hour to go before sunrise...

 

[timberjack86]

5:30 in the morning and if I have an evening hunt I am in the stand by 12:30.

x2...yep, I watch to see what time it gets light out and I try to leave so that I'm there 15 minutes or so before...I've never killed a buck at first light but I don't want to spook anything either

 

[BigD_625]

An hour before listed sunrise.

I usually try to be in my spot 15 to 30 minutes before legal shooting time. But am reconsidering that this year. I honestly can't sit more than 3 hours. I start to ache all over at that point so if i sit down at say 5:30, then I'm done at 8:30 or 9:00. And I have seen quite a few bucks chasing or trotting around looking for does at 10:00 or 11:00am while either walking out of the woods or driving around. I'm going to try going into the woods around 8:00 some this year and sitting till say 11:00 to see what happens.

I'm expecting to see fewer total deer but more bucks. Hoping it truns out that way at least!

 

[Puckett Creek]

Depends on the stand location and set-up. A lot of times I time it to slip in just at first light. I want to be able to "hunt" my way in and just blindly bumb deer in the dark.

 

[MUP]

I try to get in the stand 30 min before daylight.

 

[buttercupndaisy]

I usually try to get there about thirty minutes or so before daylight

 

[LayingTheSmackDown]

i like to get to my spot about a hour before shooting light
