Texas Solunar Calendar — July 2026

The July 2026 solunar calendar for Texas covers every day of the month, with the major and minor deer movement windows, moon phase, and a fused 0–100 hunt score computed for the state's geographic center (31.05°N, 97.56°W, Central Time). The month moves through the Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, Waning Crescent, New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous and Full Moon phases, and the table below shows when each window opens and closes for that location. Whitetail rut peak in Texas is varies by region (late October in Trans-Pecos, mid-November in Hill Country, mid-December in South Texas), so the days closest to that window are the ones to flag early. Archery is open October (statewide), firearm early November – early January (zone-dependent) for hunters in the field. Southern Plains cover is Hill Country oak-juniper, South Texas brush, post-oak savannah, and Panhandle plains, which shifts the value of a strong major window — wind in big timber moves scent differently than wind across open ag, and the solunar overlay is most useful when read against that terrain context.
