[QUOTE="JSHKS, post: 1404774, member: 103581"] I thought some of the old almanac stuff my grandpa's and dad set some stock in was just bull butter. Want to go fishing, dad would look at it and decide a lot of times. He watched the barometer as well. If moon was wrong to fish it barometric pressure was right, he would go. His thoughts, they can't predict the weather a year in advance, let alone a day lol. I started deer hunting pretty hard in the 80's. I was either working on a farm or in an agricultural business of some type, so I was out and about quite a bit. Working on a dairy I was up early and home late for a spell. As mentioned above a day and late evening spent out driving around will answer a lot of questions. I would see very little movement of deer through the data out two hours after sunset and drive by a wheat field or alfalfa field and there were large numbers out. More so than normal. The powers to be here in Kansas say it has no effect on hunting. Maybe not hunting, but successful hunting yes it does, lucky hunting no. When the orange army gets out and about, I think that has an impact on making them go nocturnal as well. One day of stupid hunting, I say stupid I mean out stomping basically through the middle of prime habitat and expecting no change in the critters movement. Ask anyone that elk hunts about this.
