Default RE: Full moon(deer movement), and the rut(for ohio guys)

It has been my expierience that the full moon period produces NOTHING for me!
Not even sightings.Case in point,I get out almost every night for at least an hour-have been seeing 2 groups of deer,2 mature does with 2 fawns and a small buck traveling with 2 does.I' ve taken 1 mature doe,1 fawn,and the 5 pt. buck.Only 2 outings out of 14 have produced no sightings until this week-Monday and Tuesday I have not seen a single deer! I do use bait and there are other deer in the area,but one of two things are taking place,either they have really patterned me or the damm full moon.As i look back in my records,this has always been the way.I' m hoping for a cold front and the pre-rut which is the best time in my opionion to be afield.
