Well for me on the East coast this is a pretty good thing.It will allow me to hunt some of my favorite stands in the morning,with it being light a little earlier. I can now hunt in the AM and get the kids to school on time. Most stand's I have for night hunts will be more productive due to people not running around on quads and dirt bikes. The earlier sunset doesn't give people who wander around my hunting holes time to get out disrupt the area.  Anybody else get better results from the daylight savings?

Other than it sucks getting up earlier, I don't mind it. Being retired kind of adds to my flexibility though.    :rolleyes:

I know that first work day after returning to Standard Time in the fall kills me.  I get all messed up driving home in the dark.  It is nice for the mornings though.

I hate it. I hunt mostly evenings and it cuts an hour off my evening sits.

I really don't care for it, either.  I start work at 0530, so it is dark either way.  I lose an hour of hunting daylight in the afternoon.  I can't complain, though.  I am lucky to have a job.

daylight savings time is like cutting a foot from the bottom of your blanket and sewing it to the top.

What I hate is the end of it, in the spring, during turkey season. Just when I get them patterned, they wake up the morning of the change and it's still dark. It messes up their patterns for about a week, until they learn to sleep a little later. Turkeys aren't very smart.    

I actually heard of a woman writing to the local newspaper complaining that the time change affected her prize roses.

Worst idea ever! Dark at 5 PM looong, dark evenings and nights.

Wish we stayed on daylight saving time year round.

I am not a fan myself.  Set the time and keep it that way.

God Bless,
Nathan

So do we fall back this Sunday?

That could be a BIG OOOOOPS  

I don't like it.    

But I have no control over it  

I don't like it because I don't like to go to work in the dark and come back in the dark.  I would rather turn the clock the other way an hour so I could do something when I get home during the work week.  I am very happy that they pushed the date of the change farther into the fall.  

It could be dark until noon as far as I am concerned.  Then I could sleep in on my days off and still make it into my stand by sun up. I could hunt till 10 at night.  That would be great.

I get on a 5 AM get up schedule early in the hunting season and kind of stay on it.  Got up way earlier than I need to this morning, but next week I will be right on schedule again.

I like it...shooting light by 5:40. I have to be at work by 8:30. I get 2 1/2 hours on stand. Alot can happen in that amount of time  

It works out great for me because I work swing shift. It gives me more daylight hours to hunt.  

I don't like it when Daylight Savings Time ends because it causes it to get cold out. Ya know, one less hour of daylight! It's true, the proof is in the spring when Savings Time kicks in and it causes the weather to warm up. Every time...  

I hate it. I will be hunting IL next week and will just leave the clock as is and change when I am done hunting. Might be getting to my stand an hour late but by the sun I will be in the stand same as everyone else. If I was retired(tired after being tired?) I woudl let the closck catch back-up in the sping.
