I`ve hunted 11 days and it`s been over 90 degrees every day.

You need to reword you poll.  You only have one question for each question.  Make it one question.  If you have a good early season place to hunt - go for it.  Take a plastic bag with a clean shirt.  Get to your stand, cool off a little, change your sweaty shirt and put it in the bag and put the clean shirt on.  Maybe a little scent killer spray.  You'll work up an even smeller sweat if you start scouting a bunch.  May do more harm, unless you are totally unfamiliar with the area.

For me easy... wash 2 sets of hunting gear...

hunt the a.m trails/near bedding area... about 11 a.m. get a bite, scout to your hearts content...

wash up, spray down,change clothes,  and get to the eve stand- foodsource bout 2 hrs before sunset... not picture perfect, but they are still out there, and they still gotta eat!!!
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.

I don't understand the question, season is open and you have some time. HUNT!

Here in N GA I killed most of my deer for years during bow season, saving a buck tag for the rut.  

Before I started giving up my bowseason for deer to chase bears, most of the deer I killed were in the last our of the day.  

Depends on how close you hunt to the bedding area. If you hunt on the edge of a food source, then the last 15 munutes was the magic time, if you hunted in funnels, then the last 30 to 45 minutes were prime, and if you hunted close to the bedding area, the last hour was the bewitching hour.

Moon phase at that time really didn't seem to matter as the head, normally 90 degrees or more as the high, over ruled as they were still in the summer pattern down here.  

When the acorns fall and its hot this late, the last hour is the time to be on alert.  I tried to get in the last 2 hours of the day, that way I'm settled, and haven't busted any deer on the way in.

Good luck.

Down here in Texas its plenty hot and we kill whitetails in 100 degrees. It is tough, but one of the best things I found are those sticks you can light. They give off smoke. there is one that is for the rut and one for covering your scent. They work I have had deer a ten feet sniffing away at the smoking bush. Beware cows like them too. I had three 800lbs steer, like to run me over trying to get to the smoking bush. I forget the name of them they look like incense.They work good in the heat and cold.

Hunt, especially in the cooler morning. Afternoon is optional but morning is mandatory.

Do both!!  Grab you bow and a couple arrows and go still hunt around and scout out some new territory.
