The moon theory blows in my woods[:-]
Well, I gave it a chance, and yes, that moon concept does blow!! I knew it wasn't going to make any difference. I did another dark to dark hunt today, I saw NOTHING!! ThisHAS been the "2008 Rut That Wasn't". I talked to another hunter in my area who puts his time in, and he said he believes there was no rut.
I have not seen one singlebuck chasing a doe at all this year. I know it wasn't the warm temps because we had similar temps last year and saw plenty of rutting activity. The rut isn't going on much at night because I'm in my stand an hour before first light, and I'm not hearing any chasing going on in the dark. Therutting moon made zero difference as well. I have no idea what's happening this year!!!
