How much stock do you put in solunar predictions?
How seriously do you follow the solunar calendars? What kinds of experiences have you had with the accuracy of the solunar theory?

RE: How much stock do you put in solunar predictions?
None, I followed them for years and did no better than I did with random chance.

RE: How much stock do you put in solunar predictions?
I usually pay littleattention to it. The way I figure, I'm going to be out there hunting anyway, so why worry about it. If I went solely by the solunar table, I would only hunt the prime times, which would add up to about 3 hours a weekend. I'll be damned if I'm going to cut my hunting timeshort just because the solunar table says to. I have seen deer move when the table says they are supposed to, but I have also seen deer when the table says movement will be slow. I enjoy just being in the outdoors, regardless if I see deer everytime I go out or not. I'm not going to lie to you though, I look at the table sometimes just out of curiosity to see how accurate it is, but I don't plan my hunting on it.

I don't put any into it. I've heard a qualified whitetail biologist say that they move around every 3-4 hours to forage for food regardless.
I'm sure some times are better than others, but I just don't pay any attention to it. |

Zip. Zero. Nada.
Furthermore, why would you want to follow a system that tells you most of the time you go in to the woods that it's probably going to be a bad day? |

One aspect of the solarlunar cycles you can take to the bank: second new moon phase after the fall solistice, be in the woods as much as possible if hunting the rut is your thing.
ADDITIONALLY, MY FAVORITE TIME TO HUNT IS WHEN THE MOON IS LITERALLY a sliver of a crescent, with a star inside the crescent. [* |
RE: How much stock do you put in solunar predictions?
I don't usually need a chart to tell me the best times will be in the early morning, and late in the afternoon... However, if there's an indication that there will be good movement during the middle of the day, I'll be there. There isn't really a *bad* time to be hunting IMO.

I never beleved in them but a couple of guys that I work with plan their hunts around them. I guess that if you believe they work you'll stay in the woods.

RE: How much stock do you put in solunar predictions?
None. I go when I can, stay out as long as I can ... regardless of moon phase, solar tables, weather or any other such. I ain't sayin' it don't work, just I don't pay it no mind.
