Daylight Savings

[Hardwood11]

It looks like Congress will end it … I checked the fall times, & they align pretty well for hunters. Later time for sunrise to sleep in, & a 5:35 sunset into December.

The working man might get out more often after work etc…

Your thoughts ?

I was hoping they'd split the difference and pick the half hour in the middle and leave it there.

Almost 9am sunrise is tough on construction type workers. Either way, I hate DST and wish they would just pic a standard and stay with it. Everyone will adjust

Bus drivers too … splitting the difference might have been the best . Oh well, everyone will adjust .

Not a fan of Daylight Savings at all, especially for the early risers - better matches arcadian rhythms. Daylight at 9 PM pushes me to stay up later. I was hoping they would make Standard Time permanent.

But at the end of the day, the clock is just a number so quit changing it every 6 months should be the goal.

Good point on evening hunts though.

Sleeping in another hour has its advantages on a 4-6 day hunt !

I'm probably in the minority but I'd prefer things stay as they are. I appreciate the evening hunts in the early season but once rut hunting starts I really like getting an early start and being back in at dark around regular dinner time. Especially if I'm at home to eat with the Family.

As a duck hunter it will also suck. Will still have to be out early for a spot. I'm over the midnight spot races but it will still be an extra hour before shooting time.

After living with it for 53 years I really don't get what the big deal is with the current system. Bunch of softies.....
