I'm a senior and old habits are hard to beat, go in early stay late. I hunt public land in Eastern Ky so its not the best but its still hunting.

What a massive amount of knowledge! God bless you my brother in Christ. Thank you for all your years of hunting videos! You are the best!

The best time to hunt is when the sun is up!

I’m definitely starting to rethink this too. 70% of the deer I’ve killed in Georgia have been in the afternoon/evening . But when I’ve killed in the mornings it’s been late season.

This is a great question. And there's really no perfect answer. It really does depend on where you are. I have been a deer hunter for 45 years. I live in central North Carolina but hunt also in southern Va, SC and, for the last few years I've hunted West Virginia. I've never hunted Georgia but it seems that Georgia has very similar terrain as does NC. For example, we have lots of pines that are mixed with hardwoods. Early season I like to sneak in the hardwood bottoms and find areas where acorns are dropping. I see lots of deer movement early in the morning and have more success in the mornings. Early season it is very hot and as a rule of thumb the deer movement is over by 9:00 in the morning. In the late afternoons during archery season the deer will move just at twilight, so I like to set up and ambush deer as they are moving to a feeding area. So, I like to set up near bean fields for example and I've had a lot of success when deer are coming out to feed. Toward the end of the video David mentioned how thick some of the areas are here in the southeast. He's absolutely right. So many times I'm up in my stand and look down and, wow, where did that buck come from. They sneak up on you here. Anyhow, that's good stuff. But for me the answer is "morning".

Same for me in Missouri

Depending on what part if the country your in, but if it’s cold, 10 a.m. to 1. If it’s warm, last 30 minutes of daylight

Great observations! Where you are hunting along with time of year and weather play a big part. Also if you are hunting one certain deer his patterns feeding, working scrapes and so on can dictate a morning or evening or sometimes all day dawn to dusk. Good luck this season. Happy Independence Day!

The correct answer to best times to hunt is yes

When it’s cold all day long and no clouds high pressure, evening is the best time, get on a food source

When there is a heavy frost on the ground and the sun starts coming up in ga

Food sources are better afternoon spots simply due to the deer being in the fields in the dark. Rut funnels can be all day in the prerut. Knowing deer movement in different parts of the season can make morning good as long as entry and exit plans are established.

I hunt central and south Alabama, I’ve found I see more bucks in the mornings usually within the 1st hour or less of daylight cause they’ve been up feeding all night and I’ll catch them headed back to bed down , when the rut is on, I’ll stay from dark til dark cause it can literally happen at anytime during the day, i see bucks in the evenings but it’s more obvious in the mornings in my expierience

I've been deer hunting in eastern Kentucky for over 30 years and I can tell you that the best time to hunt deer here is from about 10 p.m. to 2 a.m..

Last hour in the evening, rut or no rut.

I like to go deer hunting after dark, everyone as gone home and there is no competition in the woods!😎🦌

Iam 68 years old, All day. Any time you can spend hunting, YOU HUNT!! If your not hunting midday, YOU ARE A PART TIMER!! Mid day is just as good as any other time of day.Do not be cutting your hunting time if you do not have to!!

Best time to deer hunt is during deer season 😂

Mornings when the deer are active and the game wardens are not! :)
