I am with ya on that man ... they find their little hole to hind in and do their business in the peek of the rut ...then as it winds down they get stupid and pop out into the open a little more often ! I may be putting up a stand this year ...I have been trying to kill this one buck for years and he does not come out in daylight hours ...but I know where he lives and it is thicker than ....... and I maybe hanging over his head this season  :dunno: :chuckle:

   Very subjective question. It will depend on your setup which will be most productive.

I find that tree stands are best in the evening, but for onlyone reason. USUALLY i manage to scare deer elmer-fudding throught the woods in the dark. Boyd Iversone leans tword tree stand in the evinening.  :twocents:

I have one spot that i had TONS of pics and i scared deer going into the stand. I took my fathers tractor with a brush hog and mowed my path to the stand so i could be quiet... Well the deer loved to bed on my new path. They were always there in the morning but i could't get close to them to hunt them in the morning. I rarely saw them in the evening.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
