Moon Phases and Mule Deer
Posted: Sun Jun 08, 2014 2:00 pm
Hey fellas,
So a full moon falls on Thursday November 6th this year. I'll be hunting Colorado unit 711 from the 1st to the 9th.
Here in Texas the moon can really change up the hunting. The whitetail deer feed all night, bed down early and then don't move around until the middle of the day. This is my first time hunting mule deer and I'm curious as to what affect it will have on their movements during this time of the year. I've read up, in a few places, on the subject and everyone seems to have their own opinion and stories about hunting during a full moon week. Anyone here have any advice? Thoughts?
