The best time to hunt for older mature deer is from 10am-2pm. Living on a farm and working the fields all day I see the most deer activity in the middle of the day. The reason for this is primarily that the older deer have caught on to hunters morning and evening patterns. I always see them grazing around lunch time. Alot of people think the biggest bucks are strictly nocturnal, but they also move midday when those hunters arent in the woods. I've seen many P&Y bucks this time of day run across the road too.
