Default RE: White Tail Deer

Good luck. I have asked the same question in the past and got the same results you have. I have noticed no pattern. I have had great hunts after a new moon. I have also had great hunts after a full moon. I have also had great hunts with everything in-between. The counter to this is I have had bad hunts in all the above situations. I wish some one could figure this one out so I would know. I have noticed patterns with the weather and pressure systems that have contributed to my luck. As for the moon Im not sure.

Someone on here a while back reported a graph created by field biologists who had done a study on whitetails. The graph compared activity after new and full moons. There was little difference in the graphs.
