Moon Phases

Unread postby Busch Light Bandit » Thu Jul 25, 2013 1:10 am

Anyone know of a good place to go to get the moon phases for the season? I really saw substantially way more movement when I implemented this into my hunting plan last year. Thanks!

Dan normally posts up the over head under foot days during hunting season. Not sure if he has the chart yet.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

I think Stanley had a guide of some sort, maybe he will chime in.

If you are looking for precise moon transit times (when the moon is overhead/underfoot) and moon phases (full moon, new moon etc.), I use the government site http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/RS_OneDay.php Type in your location and day you are interested in and get everything you need for that day.

Click on "Data Services" on the left side of the screen for more options - if you want sunrise/sunset times, or moon data for the entire season etc. Its a great site.

I don't have 2013 chart.

Thanks guys! If I am reading moon phases correctly, it should be a great opener with lots of activity in WI!

I posted my dates and a really good web source for moon info in a sticky at the top of the deer forum.
