It probably does but I won't schedule a hunt according to the phases of the moon. If I did, then I would not have gotten the buck in my avatar. Hunt all you can b/c you won't get him in the bed. Just in your dreams.

Always wondered that myself...some people swear by it. The amount of time u spend in the woods usually determines if u get a deer

yes it does and i have a theory that always has held true this was told to me by a friend on the full moon stay in the woods. they can see then and feel comfy in the woods and on a new moon they stay in the feilds so that they can see if there are any predators around

I go back up North for one or two weeks every bowseason and try to work it around the moon phases. I like to starta few days after a full moon, as long as it's still pre-rutor early rut (it doesn't work out on the calender every year).Does it help?...I dunno, but it don't hurt!
