It depends on my mood and work and family and other obligations. It's hot here now so I'm not in the mood
. Of course season doesn't start where I hunt until October anyhow so maybe we'll get some cooler weather. If I'm on to a good spot or a nice buck I may try to get in a couple of afternoons a week. It is also nice to take off a couple of long weekends and get away each season.
I have acquaintances that save all their vacation for deer season and others that have their own business that virtually close down for fall. Both sound nice in a way but their families are often dissapointed. Sometimes wish life was like it was as a kid - school and hunting - in no particular order. :D

I usually get 3-4 weekends a year for deer. Maybe an extended weekend or a week thrown in depending on the year and my available vacation time.
I don't have a close local place to hunt so its hard for me to get out any more then that.

Every night after work and all weekend, I usually take a week off work the first of Nov. I let everyone fend for themselves during hunting season.

Well, I'll spend four vacation weeks this year hunting almost every day including in Texas and Quebec, then at least 1-2X/week from opening day for deer on October 13 to almost Thanksgiving. I'll even try leaving work early until daylight savings time ends. Oh! At least one day a wk during spring turkey season this year! I'll spend at least a few of those days hunting pre-dawn until after sunset.

7-8 times if I'm lucky...but for now with work and the family it's enough. Before I was married it was every weekend from mid October thru the end of the season and a full week in early November.

I usually fill out 40 permit cards each year for the WMA that I hunt and usually use all of them and a few more. I also hunt 40 acres behind my house. It's about 60 yards(from my house) to where I start hunting. I don't really keep up with those hunts.

Usually two to three weeks on out of state/country trips a year. At home for deer not nearly enough. I will hunt more this year for deer. Evenings and weekends for sure.

In the past I have hunted about 4-5 times a week. I just had my second kid this summer so I think that I might be lucky to get out 2 times a week this year...
