    Don't forget to set your clocks back an hour this coming Saturday night, especially if you plan on hunting Sunday. Happens to someone every year, don't become a statistic :lol:

    I really despise DST

    Also, if like me and use your phone for an alarm, you'll have to set the alarm an hour earlier if it auto updates.

    I hate having to wake up earlier to hunt but it sure is nice getting home a little earlier at dark.

    Hate it. Can't get into the stand after work any earlier than 4pm. Now it's like 5pm. I'm still sitting though!

    One more bump, tonight's the night.

    If you plan on hunting tomorrow set your alarms an hour earlier if your clock automatically updates.

    I enjoyed the days of not having to fool with it here Indiana.

    Thanks, Mitch.

    I agree! Sometimes nice to get home after a hunt this time of year and have dinner with my wife and not have a sandwich or leftovers.

    Dog woke me up to go outside. Now I don't know if it's the new 1:50am or if the time is about to go back 1:50am :lol:

    Scared I'm going to miss my window to get in the woods lol

    I remembered to set my alarm an hour earlier so I changed it to 4:30 before I went to bed. Unfortunately my alarm clock is an ihome which connects to your phone & my phone updated for DST automatically but not my ihome. So it woke me up @ 3:30 instead of 4:30.
