You're really going to let a full moon stop you from going hunting? I don't think it makes much difference. I'd be going hunting if I had the time.

I dont ever concern myself with the moon.  :dunno:

The way I see it, you can't kill anything sitting at home.  I'll be out there.  :twocents:

I've still been seing plenty of sage brush mule deer out and about.  They don't come out until a little bit later but they still come out.  Can't kill anything sitting on the couch.

Duck you should just go out hunting somewhere else, look at it as though it's a scouting trip or just some time out there hunting.
You never know what you'll see. :dunno:

 :yeah: Take a camera with you and get some pics for us. I think too much emphasis is put on the moon phase myself, I have several bucks/bulls that were taken under a full moon. This is the only moon cycle you should be concerned with IMHO

I saw 11 deer in the first hour of the season, 5 were bucks.  Put a stalk on but got ruined by another hunter coming over the ridge and spooking them.  :bash:

Kidding?  No... why do you say that? I hunt when I have time off work. I can't schedule my hunting around the different phases of the moon.
