3 days before full moon will be your best hunting from what I have learned. If I have something going on those three days before full moon, I cancel and get into the woods. This year its on the 22nd of October so I'll be hunting on the 19th, 20th and 21st pretty hard. Its all dumb luck anyways! A lot of big bucks around central WI, are being taken as we speak and a lot of rumors are flying around that a lot of these bucks are with does. One guy rattled one in and shot it. I myself had grunted one in and made a scrape 8yrds away but decided to let it go. Just like anything else, you got to put your time in I guess. Good luck
