We've seen plenty in the back yard, but never in the front... That's pretty cool getting to watch them like that.
We enjoy watching them out back. What are you putting out for them??? |

Get one of those one-piece insulated jump suits. I can barely walk in mine it's so warm so it has to be zipped up near the sitting spot.

I live in a small town last few years. in the fall there is a fat 200 lb doe and her two fawns that clear all the acorns off the ground like vacumn cleaners
The Sammich maker has warned me many times to quit stalking them . Great thread OP |

Yeah, I don't think I could sit in the cold. Lowest I have hunted is 6 degrees F, and we didn't see squat. 12-20 is normal for early morning hunting this late into the season here. I have all next week to hunt, and love the cold weather, especially if we get snow. Granted, I walk most of the time, ride 4-wheelers and truck hunt, so I'm pretty active for 90% of the hunts.

It's never too cold to sit in a stand. I've been out when the chill factor was low enough that you didn't dare have exposed skin. You just have to know how to dress for it. Hand warmers and toe warmers help.

Get your hunters safety done yet? TPWD : "General Season Nov. 3, 2018 - Jan. 6, 2019 Antlerless Deer November 22-25, antlerless deer by MLDP tag or hunting license tag. At all other times, antlerless by MLDP tag only." I'll have family here Thursday but you & your bro are welcome after that. |

Yeah. Once it get's near 30° I'm actually debating on whether I should wear my insulated coveralls or just go with some long underwear. Sunday, I was out on the stand at 14° and it felt fine, but there was only a 3-6 mph wind. It's the wind that always gets me when it gets cold. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Sunday, I was out on the stand at 14° and it felt fine, but there was only a 3-6 mph wind. It's the wind that always gets me when it gets cold. Opening day Saturday was 16 degrees with virtually no wind and was completely comfortable. |

Been out all day in an open air ground blind, got here about 5AM, it was only 22 at my camp.
Layer up.Thermals, insulated coveralls, insulated socks, no problem staying warm. A little nipply, but not bad since the wind laid last night. Unfortunately, no shooter bucks today. |

In the mid twenties today. I sat in my ladder stand for a couple hours with the bow. I saw a mink and a couple squirrels.
We had snow left from yesterday and it was crunchy loud. Winds picked up around 4 and had the branches clattering like rattling antlers. |

Lol, I hunted 22 years every season in Iowa in December.
No matter the weather. Now where i'm at, it's 30° and I've passed on shooting two different does, out the living room window, because I don't want to go out and gut them.
