Most of the people that I would consider big buck slayers start hitting mornings around the 23rd or 25th. I wouldn't hesitate going into your stand if the conditions are perfect and you don't have to go stomping through all kinds of bedding to access the area. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow would be great days for example. Clear skies, cool temps, and high barometric pressure are things I look for. I have to work tomorrow but otherwise it will be the best morning to be in the woods so far this year in my book. Pressure will be crazy high and will start dropping late in the morning.

Yesterday was my first morning hunt of the year. I went today also. Both days it was well worth getting up early. I'll be there first thing in the morning too.

I had the same problem with being new to hunting and not having good land to hunt. Don't know where you're from but in the Dayton area Five Rivers Metroparks does a bowhunting program. This is my first year and I've only been allowed access to my area since Sunday morning and am seeing deer but no bucks yet. I believe other areas have park services with similar programs if you're not near Dayton. Seems like a good option.

NIS1, where do you find what the pressure will be for the days ahead,
I can find history but not future forecast.
Looking at my trail cam pics and comparing pressure it seems the higher the better, anything 30.20 and up is heavy action days.
Thanks in advance.

I use www.wunderground.com. I always look at the graph version so I can see when the pressure spikes and drops are. It's a great site.
