What time do you leave stand in early season for morning hunts?
How late do you stay, me 11:00 early. Late until I stop seeing deer than move to my afternoon stand. Normal around 1:00 PM

For the early season, it gets fairly warm here by 9:00am, so I usually don't see much movement after that. I start staying later as the season progresses eventually staying put in a tree all day during the rut.

It gets warm during the early season so around 9am is it for me. I hunt a few stands where the deer come by before 9 so after that its not productive! As the season goes on I stay later and later. During the rut I on stand most of the day! I'll come down for an hour or so to eat, stretch, etc.... Good Luck!

I said 11:00. Usually its between 10 and 11, but this past weekend I had deer come in about 9:30, so leaving at 10 just didn't seem smart as they were obviously moving.

Anytime after 9 a.m. when it's getting up in the 80's is pretty hard-core for me; it must mean I'm feeling real good about the situation, 'cause I'm usually starting to get down around then.

Depends....
If it's windy and hot and I'm not seeing deer, I leave by 8:00 and go try to make something happen.
If conditions are good and I'm not seeing deer, I'll leave around 10, go eat something, then get back around noon.
If conditions are good and I am seeing deer I sit there until I HAVE to leave.

In the early season most of the time I`m getting down around 10'30 or 11'00 But as it gets later in the season like late oct-nov-dec I will stay to around 12'00 or so.
