I hunt all day when I can. I can't justify complaining about shrinking seasons if I don't use all of the hours in the days we currently have....

All day for me....that's why man made backpacks...for lunch.
The biggest buck I have ever killed was at 12:30 in the afternoon. Once that happens to you, you tend to stay out all day.

Depends on a couple things for me ...One the Rut two the weather ...If it is the rut ALL DAY ..If it is raining and cooler weather ALL DAY ... If it is hot early morning and late evening ...As far as taking deer I have killed more deer in late mornig and early afternoon than any other time out hunting ...just like last year ..Hunted my butt off all season trying to find a monster blacktail ...We got weather for the last week of the season and I seen lots of deer and smaller bucks that week and it all came down to the last day at 12:15 that afternoon ...I love Halloween bucks
Done that a few times now ....

I hunt all times of the day, but my favorite time is in the evening. I just like knowing my chances are improving the closer I get to the end of the day.
