What do all of you believe to be the best time of day to hunt deer?

A friend of mine and myself are in an on going debate right now, and I need some 'fuel for the fire' so to speak.

I believe the best time to hunt is between the hours of 3:30p.m. and nightfall with the best time being twilight, or what I call the "witching hour". I've taken more bucks during evening twilight than I ever have during the morning hours. As a matter of fact, I've stopped going early in the morning altogether. I go to my hunting spot around 3 P.M., and since I've started doing this I've taken more deer than I ever did hunting 5 A.M. to nightfall.

What are your opinions?
