I do prefer morning hunts beacause of the improving light conditions. I do have places that produce only in the morning and some only in the evening but after a quick kill count, 50 percent are killed in the morning and the other 50 percent in the evening. Go figure!

I like morning hunts because you don't have to track in the dark. I like afternoon hunts because I think it's too easy to bump deer in the morning darkness going in, lessening the chance of a shot opportunity. In the end, my tendency is to hunt afternoons but recently I've hunting mornings and I like spending more time in the field.
What say you all?
Im with you on all counts! I have more spare afternoons then mornings. My property is too easy to bump deer walking and driving in before sunrise!
