Default Brrrrrr cold for opener!

Muzzle loader season opens this weekend and the weather forecast is for cooooold weather all week. Sunday is suppose to be a low of 10 below without windchill and a high in the single digits. I guess it is time to get the longies out . After all it's been 2 weeks since I hunted. I don't think I can go any longer.

Better you than me chetmarks. I'll be thinking about you Saturday morning when I'm sitting on my stand. It should be somewhere around fifty degrees when the sun rises over my food plot. That's a little on the cool side, don't you think?

weather here in northeast pa. is awful.

we were down to 15 degrees here for 8 days so far of deer.

i have not seen a buck yet and no doe.

i talked too 9 crews that only saw 2 deer .

boy, 35 years ago, you would see 20 deer a drive and 6 bucks per drive
