RE: ESPN's "best time to hunt" chart for October
The original chart seems to completely contradict every chart I've ever seen. I agree with others in that I believe the moon has some affect, but there are many other factors.
I prefer to hunt with as little moon as possible. During the full moon, I see activity, but much earlier and later than with a new moon. Although, I believe that the late-morning to early-afternoon times during a full moon can be productive if you have a food or water source fairly close to a bedding area.
