RE: did you see deer this weekend with the full moon.
 

Last night I saw a doe and a fawn, but momma didn't get close enough. Then I snuck up on 4 does that were milling around in the trees, not enough light for an ethical shot.

saw a nice buck around 5:30 in the evening but not within a reasonable bowrange. It was out at least 50 yards through VERY thick brush

Perhaps this was just coincidence, but I have a friend who has hunted far more than I will ever have the chance to. (He has no children, and an understanding wife!) He told me a few times that deer often move a little near the middle of the day on a full moon. Saturday, I had an 8pt. sneak in and was too close and looking right at me before I could get the bow in position. A few minutes after he left, I looked at my watch, and it was 12:05.

I was turkey hunting this weekend and saw no deer until after dark. Sunday night when the moon was blocked by clouds I saw a couple of does in the fields before dark. That was it.

Cloudy and windy, mid 50's. On the afternoon hunt I saw 11 deer, 9 of them bucks, 3 shooters. My Dad saw 16, all does or dinks.

I saw nothing on Saturday.

I saw 3 doe around 7:45am on Saturday morning but they were out of range. Then, around 8:15am I shot a button buck. Had another doe follow down the same trail a few minutes later.

I shot a button buck last sunday, and a 82 pound doe yesterday morning. and as i was dragging my deer out I scared off two big bucks.

I personally would rather hunt a full moon than any other. ESPECIALLY if it's on a high pressure day, and if said high pressure is after the passing of a cold front, look out!

I killed a big doe Friday evening after seeing around 10 deer. My hunting partner saw 20 deer Saturday morning and also shot a big doe.

We saw deer moving during the midday like the solunar tables said they would. Our corn and soybean harvest is in full steam right now and that could be causing the midday movement especially as deer are kicked out of corn fields. HCH
