Otto Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 On my property, my buddy took a buck 15 minutes before sunrise and my nephew took one 15 minutes after sunrise. So it was helpful for them. Most of my deer sightings or contacts were at the usual times, an hour or two after sunrise, or an hour or two before sunset. The 1/2 hour before or after didn’t change anything for me this year, but I know it will be helpful to me at some point in the future. There were a couple of times where even right at sunset it was dark enough to not hunt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabin Fever Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Definitely helped me with my one and only buck this season! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_C Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I shot my opening day buck around 10-12 minutes before sunrise. I had doe out one evening 20 minutes after sunset-it was darker than I felt comfortable with taking a shot that night. I have shot several deer in Pennsylvania both before and after sunrise/set. I like the new regulations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawdwaz Posted January 5, 2022 Author Share Posted January 5, 2022 A couple times I muttered under my breath "crap, I could have been back at camp by now" as I stuck it out 'till the last dog was hung..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
