2011 Mature buck sighting or kills ! ( Moon phase )

Unread postby dreaming bucks » Tue Oct 04, 2011 1:30 am

I'm just curious to see when you guys are spotting nice bucks while hunting, or killing nice bucks....

If you can, post the time you saw the buck or killed him, and then if possible, list the moon transit ( moon overhead ) for your zipcode.... Here is a link for finding that out...

Or PM me with your state and zip and I can figure out the moon time for you.......

Just curious to see how much the moohphase relates to times everyone is seeing nice bucks, or better yet, killing them.....

If you have any better ideas to make this project work even better, I'm open for suggestions....

Thanks.........
Jay
