I dont think the moon plays a huge role on deer movement. i wouldnt go on moon phases alone to get your first deer. Food,weather, and sex play a much more important role as far as movement goes. Just get out and hunt around food sources. you'll find the does there. a doe should be an easy first deer. the bucks will be around the does during the rut. basically, just find where the deer are at and hunt it. the moon isn't going to play a huge factor in getting your first one.
