The_Real_TCIII Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 One of my favorite things is being setup and just sitting there listening in the pitch dark, turkey and deer hunting. I tree to be setup 45 minutes before first light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a good 1/2 mike walk in 3N. I find it relaxing. Eyes adjust quick and don’t even need flashlight. Just have it on so I don’t get shot lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moho81 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 For me it’s in the stand and ready 30 min before sunrise. If I hunt my one stand that 3/4 of a mile walk I start walking an hour before sunrise. That’s mostly for bow season. Gun season after opening weekend I’m much more relaxed on when I start Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Legal is 7:20 its light 30 min before that. It starts getting light 20 minutes before that so I been getting in stand around 6:15Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreeneHunter Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Half Hour before sun up ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 During bow, Ill get there an hour before it starts getting light, by the time I get to most of my stands and settled in, Im there for 20-30 mins before it gets light. During the first part of gun season, Ill use the same approach for most stands. I have other stands though, that I will wait until shooting light to walk in so that I can still hunt my way to the stand. Ive taken a few deer over the years doing this.
