RE: Frustrating weather
Big John you are old.
I' ll trade any 72 degree office for a 32 degree deer stand.
Give me 30' s for lows, high of maybe 50 or less. That' s comfortable hunting.

RE: Frustrating weather
Same here in NJ my friends. I' m off for 5 days starting this Thursday and hope to see some early rutting. Warmer weather is in the forecast (upper 60s), but I am hopeful the deer will be moving or being pushed by some anxious bucks.
If it is warm as they forecast, I will focus on early AM hunting until maybe 9AM or so. Good luck

The St. Louis area in Missouri has been way warm too. The days whne it finally got cooler it rained all day... I STOOD in the rain for 3 1/2 hours one afternoon/evening and didn' t see a thing![:@]
The weather keeps cooling down during the week while I' m working and then getting warm on the weekend!! These non-hunting weekend outdoor lovers better quit praying for good weather~!![>:]

RE: Frustrating weather
We are finally seeing some signs of winter here in North Dakota. Temps for the weekend are going to top out in the upper 20s with a chance of snow through Sunday. All I can say is IT' S ABOUT TIME. I' m really sick of hunting in the 70 degree weather that we' ve had up until now. The cold weather should really get those big ' ol bucks moving.[8D]

RE: Frustrating weather
Weather is pretty nice here. It gets a tad warm in the afternoon, but the mornings are really nice. But the dang wind won' t stop. It' s 25-30 mph out there right now. And that' s SUSTAINED winds, not gusts!!!!

RE: Frustrating weather
I definitely have to say that I agree with you. This warm weather during what is typically the hottest time of the rut for my neck of the woods definitely is a bummer. When I saw a high of 70 forecasted for Saturday I cannot say that I was happy.
