Zero degrees with 30 MPH wind
10 below with 20 MPH wind
20 below with any wind at all
30 below even in a vaccume
40 below, Well this is North Dakota.
Our season opens in November and you can bet that it won't be to warm and there won't be a bug of any kind left. We are having a raging blizzard as I write this. 12 inches of snow just north of here. Hiways are closed. Fall is here.

After walking a mile, Getting setup and cozy in the stand, then get to feeling thoes bubbles in your stomach.[&o] Imodium is just as important sometimes as a rifle. 
2. To be sitting in the stand and a nice deer comes plowing out the forest chased by a hunting dog.
3. Hear a 4-wheeler
4. nextel beep when it gets a signal, even on vibrate in your coat.
5. any type of wetness.

1. Dogs (Either on the loose or just barking from a neighbouring property)
2. The dreaded stomach rumble from beer the night before, lack of sleep and something greasy for breakfast, washed down by a coffee.
3. Wet boots/clothes.
4. Thunder and lightning
5. Foreign scent. Ie. discovering you need to get gas on the way to your hunting spot... Spilling a coffee on your camo on the way.... etc.

1. Being skunked 13 deer seasons in a row
2. My own laziness
3. My own inability to sit still for more than an hour at a time
4. Low deer population density
5. The yahoos who think its ok to blast away at red squirrels when they get bored with deer hunting.
