Have you heard of the Benoit family? They are from Vermont and they track deer. Between the family they have Probably 200 years of tracking experience. I was shocked to read that on full moon nights the bucks don't move much during the night. I always used to believe that they traveled more and thats why my sightings went way down during the day.
Now match that with movement correlating with moon overhead or under foot and it makes sense to hunt the mid day on full moon periods.
I would like to add that the Benoit's claim that deer prefer dark gloomy nights. Thats when they see the most new tracks.
About 10 years ago or so it finally clicked with me that deer do not move as much during the full moon in the evenings. From my experience's mid day and late mornings have been the best times for me to be out hunting during the full moon, even all day sits seem more productive during the full moon.
