I have never used the moon phase to influence when I will or will not hunt. I just go ! Buddy of mine and I kept several years of detailed records in an attempt to correlate to moon phase. We came up with nothing strongly definitive. No.1 influence was traditional estrus cycle. No.2 clearly was weather conditions. About all we came up with on moon phase was a weak pattern of more "midday-ish" movement if the moon was full and the night sky clear.
