Locations
Save each camera, stand, plot, or crossing once. Add several habitat tags so BuckIt can judge how useful that exact place is during each part of the year.
For example, select Hardwoods, Corn or bait, and Mineral site for the same camera. BuckIt combines them instead of making you create duplicate locations.
Turn sightings into a clearer hunting pattern.
Create a deer profile and record each sighting. Weather, daylight timing, moon phase, rut stage, and future forecast matches fill in automatically.

14-day deer movement forecast
Every hour receives a 0-100% condition match. The selected location's coordinates drive its local weather, daylight, regional timing, and temperature-history inputs.
How the 0-100% condition match works
The saved latitude and longitude choose the local forecast grid, sunrise and sunset, regional rut timing, and 10-year temperature history. GPS-collar research informs the biological-season and dawn/dusk movement weights. The model combines those inputs with the selected location's seasonal habitat details, scores all 24 one-hour windows, and summarizes the three strongest local daylight planning hours into each day's percentage. The weights are: rut stage 30%, dawn/dusk timing 25%, temperature 15%, seasonal location fit 11%, precipitation 6%, wind 5%, pressure 3%, moon 3%, and cloud cover 2%. Temperature compares the forecast-day average with the preceding three days and with the 10-year average for that calendar date. Severe rain, wind, and heat can cap the final percentage.
This is a condition-match percentage, not a guaranteed probability of seeing or harvesting a deer. GPS identifies the place being forecast; it does not track the animal unless you have entered that deer's sightings and locations.
Days 8-14 use longer-range weather guidance and are naturally less certain. Movement conditions are not the same as harvest odds: habitat, food, cover, access, scent, hunting pressure, local laws and each individual deer still matter.

Appearance frequency
Each bar shows the share of recorded sightings in that two-hour window.
Rut stages
The estimate uses saved coordinates and state timing where supported. Local herd dates can still differ.
Moon-phase appearances
Each phase has its own moon shape and color. The number above it is this deer's sighting count.
