Thanks guys, this is my third year of research. I post this message on as many boards as possible to generate interest. I began the project to see if I could determine the validity of the claims of the solunar tables. Also, I wanted to see what, if any, influence the moon has on deer movement. So far, the data does not support theories of hunting ever being more productive at times other than morning and afternoon. There is no doubt that you can hunt at midday and probably see deer, however, the odds are much greater at dawn and dusk. Also, it is becoming obvious that the moon phase appears to have a greater influence than position. However, a complete analysis hasn't been finished. Hopefully, after this season, I'll be able to add it all together.
Now the answer to the most commonly asked question, yes the graphs are normalized for how many hunters are in the woods at each time interval. For example, where the graph shows that 10% of hunters saw deer at noon, that is 10% of those reporting to have been hunting at noon. That is not 10% of the overall number of submissions.
Thanks,
Johnnie
