    Well I have heard this before
    Same as a cow will lay down when a storm is coming
    I say, if you want to believe you will find ways to see it works, but to me
    I seen cows in one field laying down and a mile down the road all standing, so, I don't buy into it much
    Also, many many deer eat at night, so the theory of them chewing the cud at same times, thus laying down
    Well they eat at different times, so that wouldn't make me follow that for that reason
    So again, if you want to believe, you will see ways to, and I guess if like me you don't, will find ways to poke holes in the theory!
    Sorry, just my 2 cents

    I have always used that theory for a general idea......but never used it a barometer if I sit in the treee stand or not....I just usally dont have high hopes if all the cows are laying down...but I have seen cows laying down and had monster bucks walk under my tree stand and get stuck so its not the gospel but its a good old timers theory.

    If this is the case then I should see more deer because the cows where I hunt seem like they graze all the time! Interesting though.
