Today I missed a doe about 20 yrds she jumped the string and I watched as my arrow went straight over her back. Hopefully I will have better luck this evening. If we all put in our deer sightings and what time and moon phase we could start our own research into the Moon phase and game times.
Sighted 2 deer Doe and a smaller doe.
Time: 10:00
Moon Phase: Full
Temp: 55-65 Degrees
Wind: S
Saturday afternoon.... 97 degrees.. 7:45 pm saw 3 small bucks.. 2 small 6 points in velvet and one spike out of velvet....and one young doe. The 2 6 points sparred a little and the even chased to little doe around a few times.
The spike stayed close to the others but kept his distance from the one 6 point.. must be a lover and not a fighter...lol
Sunday morning .... 74 degrees .. muggy and very heavy fog... saw 2 does at 8:45 am. No telling what walked as the visability was about 50 yards top.
This morning before work...70 somthing.. foggy again... saw 2 does at same spot.. probably the same as the day before... seen at a patch of wild grapes both times and they could care less about the truck and me.. drove to with in 100 yards of them and watched them from the truck for 20 mins until I had to go to work.
For the last week I have seen very few deer compared to 2 weeks ago... movement seems to be under moon light in the middle of the night.
Thats awsome guys the more we put down the better our survey will come out in the end I would like to add one more thing and that is how many hours that where spent in the stand on each hunt.
Hunted tonight with a half moon saw 6 does and two babys couldnt get a shot because there was way to many eye's. It was about 80 degrees and wind was from the south.
Hunted from 5:00-7;00
Hunted this afternoon for first time this season, 6 pm 'til dark. Saw 10 does and yearlings, 1 young buck, basket rack, too late to tell exactly how many points, possibly 4 or 6. Temp about 78 deg., wind from n-e at 10mph.

Deer sighted a big fat Zero. Did see a Bobcat and a Barn owl landed 5 feet from me checking me out I was sticking my tounge in and out but then got scared he would take the bait and stopped. He spun his head around backwards and then flew away. Love to see big birds when I hunt.
