I'm a retired Conservation Officer, and a Wildlife Biologist by training.
I've found "some" validity to the charts, but far too many other variable factors affect the animals to a greater degree.
The biggest factor is weather. A front approaching will trigger feeding followed by seeking shelter immediately preceding a frontal passage. After the initial blast of inclement weather, the animals will again begin feeding until the temps stabilize. They will then return to the "normal" pattern whatever that might be.
Secondly is sunset/sunrise. A peak in movement occurs after sunrise and typically ends about 2hrs. later when the diurnal animals (deer, bear,racoons, ect.) will bed down for a lengthy period. Another movement will occur preceeding sunset. Really successful hunters I know who kill a LOT of BIG deer, know they typically move from one dense area to another sometime between noon and 2pm. Knowing where this is can produce a lot of good opportunities. One typical scenerio is from dense pine thickets to a hammock on a swamp. Hunt the borders between these areas at this time. Hence, don't neccessarily sit in a single shooting house or stand ALL DAY, if experience tells you that you won't see much in the middle of the day. Shift from small woodland food plots in AM and hit the large field borders in late evening. Perhaps walk slowly through dense pines during periods of high wind in mid day.
Tactics will also trump the "Charts". By the way, deer can't read, but they do listen to the human activity, and they often have you patterned better than you do them!
Local conditions such as drought, heavy snowfall, lack or abundance of food sources add to the "guess work".
Rut and/or breeding season will alter the patterns.
Like another poster mentioned, spend a lot of time in wildlife habitat, and you are likely to be there when they move.
HINT, watching the weather forecasts are a better indicator of animal activity than the "horoscope" or solunar tables.
Also, be WHERE the game is. Generally, 95% of the game animals are in 20% of their available habitat. Find out where that 20% is and catalog it in your diary; where, when, and why! Then, you'll know where to look next year. My older brother spent many hours watching mule deer in Montana while he was stationed there guarding nuclear missle sites. He could almost predict within minutes and tenth's of a mile where the deer and antelope would be based on season (time of year), time of day, and local weather conditions. When he got time to hunt, he was able to fill all his tags with a minimum of effort and EXPENSE.
Most other biggame animals aren't much different.
