Hunting the Rut

Many have different opinions on moon phases hunting but I use it each year and have great success. Weather, temps, and deer numbers also have a key aspect to the rut but moon phases generally have a great link to when it will be on.
Look on the calendar and find when fall begins, fall equinox. find the 2nd full moon on calendar after the fall equinox and go back 4-5 days. This will generally show the heat of the rut. Now this can be different in every state in the US. It could vary due to the weather like I mentioned before. I have 12 different Pope and Young harvests that I have used this Moon Phase hunting. I hunt generally in MN and WI so this works great for my hunts. Remember to always be safe and hunt hard....
