does anybody have any info on how to hunt the moon and does it work my dad always told me if its a full moon the deer will wait till dark to come out because they can see better it makes sense but i dont know if its true because deer are nocturnal and there eyesight is different tahn ours i would just like to know if any one knows any tips on the moon thing or if it even works any info is greatly appreciated

I cant answer this, I have heard the same thing. Deer feed at night anyway, so does a full moon effect hunting conditions as much as originally thought.

moon phases

The way I see it is, I'm going to be hunting, full moon or not, so I don't care if it's full or not. In my experiences though, while hunting during a full moon I have seen most movement at 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and right at last light. I believe the temps have more to do with deer movement than anything.

Any time of the season, during any phase of the moon is a good time to hunt.

To each his own!!![8D]

Like it has be said before, this is especially important in fishing.

Lunar activity seems to affect all creatures. I once had a dog that would run crazy through the house during full moon times. A cat the same too. I'm not sure the specific effcts on deer and what not, but I'm sure there are some.

i hunt a full moon once a yaer the rut!!!!!!!this is when deer are best seen night or day 1st full moon in nov. in il. will produce large daytime bucks evey time

I personally don't pay too much attention to the moon phases. Where I am located we get 4 weeks to hunt deer (rifle) so I go whenever I get the chance

One thing I notice, a new moon and hunt all day, liable to see anything anytime. Full moon, and they bed all day. I sat last year all day and had littlerly 4 deer bedding 50 yards away. They didn't move but to get up and scratch and bearly feed around and go back down. As soon as 5PM rolled around, they were up and at em.

Tides seem to make a difference too. Seems if you live around ocean, notice if you see deer moving with high tide. Maybe crazy, but I have noticed a major feed around high tide.

During rut, all bets off, a buck will move all day all night looking for a hot doe.
