OK ....next to standing corn, I hate clear nights with a full moon

Where the heck were the deer tonight??

 

Im with ya!

 

right there with yah!

 

I had other issues...

 

Yeah Al,,, that really sucks! You got a back-up bow?

 

3 bucks and 6 does but none of the bucks were shooters.

 

I didn't see a single deer this evening either. Even my morning hunt wasn't good. The time change made me get into the stand an hour later than I wanted, and there were 11 does in the cut beans when I walked in. Skunked twice in one day

 

The next couple days are going to be tough. Full moon, clear nights....activity all night. Mid day sightings might be up if you sit all day but it's going to be rough.

 

i think it might be the time change, give it a few days..maybe the deer were still moving that hour later, which would make it dark.....who knows..

Its crazy i sat alll day and saw one doe, blank this morning, and one doe tonight..from a distance, not close at all.

 

I had to read this 3 times to get what you were saying.:D

 

ROFL!! :D


Rob, I was thinking I shoulda slept in and went out about 9:30 ... there is a hard frost out there tho .... it could be a good morning.... we shall see .....

 

I didnt see any either.....this is getting really sad. Damned WIDNR...I want my money back lol.

 

I'm not sure why you guys are complaining about a full moon?

Deer are VERY active during this phase.

You just need to be in your stand during the mid-day hours to see the activity.

 

haha sorry....was a little tired when i wrote it...let me sum it up..

saw one doe all day....haha

 

I think they are more active mid-day than when there is not ... but it still isn't like central ave out there .. I woul;d think they would be moving early tonight ..

 

I didn't know the deer knew about DST, tricky little fur balls. I enjoy a full moon to hunt by. Had quite a few running all over the place last night.

 

I always have hated full moons.
And in my experience the "supposed" mid-day movement during full moons is a joke. I've yet to see it

 

Preacher Tony...you shouldn't hate!

 

I agree with this ...I have never experienced it ... at least not like you get on some mornings or late afternoons...

 

I dont think i have either..but i really never thought about the moon phase that much until this year...
