Like IBH, I've had some very good years where I killed a buck during a full moon. THIS year however has been a bust for rutting activity. The weather has sucked with too warm, rainy and then -OF COURSE - WINDY. But I just talked to a guy who is a breeder of deer and he said they've been breeding there for a week or so - and he's not that far away from where I am. I think the Alsheimer schedule is waaaay off this year. Most years, it seems like the rut takes place at pretty much the same time - full moon or not.
