Deer Movement?

[Dhook]

So i went bowhunting this weekend in the siren area and didn't see much for deer movement throught out the day. I know that they're out there cause out shining i would see hundreds. I'm not sure if it is the full moon or the warm weather, maybe both, but i was wondering if everyone else was having the same problem?

I hunted Sat from 10-2 and saw nothing, then saw a nice buck right before dark. I agree the full moon and warm temps are gonna hurt daytime movements. I have the next three days off and am gonna concentrate early and late in the day, although I plan on sitting until around at least 10am in the mornings. You just never know this time of the year but I can't do all day in a stand.

i know what you mean, i was just kind of surprised with how little the deer are moving. with the rut almost in full swing i would think that the deer would be running crazy.

I was in the Gordon area Thurs through Sunday and was disappointed by the amount of deer that I saw. Only time I saw anything was within first or last 15 minutes of shooting hours. The bucks that I did see did not seem to be chasing as much as I thouhgt that they would be. Maybe this weekend I will have better luck.
