Your best shot is the last 15 minutes before dusk, and possibly mid day, as deer will tend to get up for a while during this time.

The group I hunt with hunts mornings and evenings, and I can tell you we have shot a lot more bucks during a new moon than a full moon. While I think the moon does have an affect on deer movement, weather has an even bigger impact.

Ditto..same experiences
