Default Deer Hunting is better when it is cloudy?

I heard from someone that apparently deer hunting is drastically better when it is cloudy/overcast. I have personally never heard this before and I have been deer hunting for a pretty good while. The person explained to me that deer don't like it when it is sunny outside because of all the shadows, and deer apparently don't like shadows, or something. I know all animals are affected in some way by barometric pressure and barometric pressure changes with the onset or post weather front. With a weather front, clouds could be part of it. I honestly have no faith in the fact that is has to do with sunlight and shadows. There are more shadows morning, evening, and night than anytime. And deer move most at those times!

Has anyone else ever had anyone tell them that or think this way?
