    My experience has been, that with a bright moon, the deer won't be moving much. From what I've seen, opening day is gonna be real bright. Do you think this will have a big impact on what were seeing, or will the rut trump that?

    Last year when the moon was full during gun season we had deer moving more at midday. Will be interesting to see since opening day is so full of gun hunters and some just can't get the idea that you don't have to fire at everything that moves. So the pressure from guns might be high enough to really push the deer from the time the sun rises.
