Time/daylite

[Dom]

At what time/daylite too shoot? In my area it is more than light enough to shoot at 5:30 am is this to early?Was and still not sure if if it is.What is day lite to me is being able to see several hundred yard's depending on the fog/weather,still not sure even after hunting 20 plus years.

Legal shooting time for turkey hunting is 1/2 hour before sunrise till noon in YOUR area. On darker days, it may be legal to shoot, but not safe to. Have to use your best judgement. I've had turkeys come in to shooting distance at legal shooting time, but light conditions saved their life. It's stays pretty dark on cloudy days in some of the woods hunted this time of the year. With sunny days, looking into the woods can be pretty tough at certain times too.

So go to say weather underground and type in your town..or rather town you are hunting in...on that page it will give you the sun rise sun set times for your areas....I always keep a sheet with me during deer season especially...... so I'm not too early nor too late...know a guy that got nailed coming out of the woods with his deer and it was 5mins past shoot time when the ECON officer heard the shot...stopped and waited for him...Not like driving I guess...no 5mph over reprieves
