Moon times

[EthanHogan1]

Dan, in hill country bucks you and Andrea mention the moon and how it affects deer. One statement you make is you want the moon to affect when they are feeding in the am. Could you post a chart or an image of a time table that shows an example?? I am getting a book sent to me from one of the members to help me understand the moon but I wanted to ask you too. I have a stand that is surrounded by corn and they are bedding on the inside edge of my 40. I want to make sure to use the moon to ambush in the am.

For example, would these late moon rise time mid Jan the 14-16 is 10am-11am does this mean they would be out feeding late in the am and getting back to bed a little later?

Any one else who wants to comment on this as well feel free

I think you want to be looking at moon overhead and moon underfoot times (rather than moonrise/moonset) that are within an hour plus or minus of sunrise or sunset.

You want the moon transit times, or overhead and underfoot times.
That's when the most gravitational pull is on the earth.

Any one got a chart that shows that?? I have a harder time understanding moon overhead and under foot??

So Jan 3-5 for example has moon overhead times at 620- 8 am sometime those days. With those times being around morning feeding time this means they would come back to bed later?

I look at usprimetimes.com. Type in your zip and it will give you the overhead and underfoot times. You are correct with your statement above, might give you daylight movement in the am on those days with the overhead time close to sunrise. Overhead or underfoot in the evening +/- 1 hr from sunset might have the buck get up that 10 or 15 min earlier

Moon overhead/underfoot are what most key on, but rise/set can also have effect but maybe not as great. I use Time2hunt app, pretty useful to see these times. Personally the last 5 bucks I've shot, only 1 was on the moon time but I do see an effect while glassing in the evenings during the summer so do take stock in it but I hunt when I have time to hunt.
