Default Snow is Here !!!!!!!!!!

Yes indeed, i woke up this morning to a 3 inch blanket of the white stuff. Its about 2 weeks or so earlier than usual it seems but we have had alot of moisture this fall. I think we all knew as soon as the temp dipped down we were getting snow instead of rain. Other than shoveling the stuff i am very excited about it. Nothing like hunting in the snow. Tracking and spotting become alot easier tasks. Also it came so early this year we should have a month and a half of deer hunting in a white background, i just love it. The timing was just right, we finished harvesting our crop on Monday. We are laughing but many other farmers will have crop left out over winter. Anyone else have any snowfall yet this year?

We got it here south of you too. Here in North Dakota. Same story. I got up to go out for breakfast and was greeted but 3-4 inches of the white stuff. It won't last long here unless we get some more soon. We are still 3 weeks from Deer season here and four weeks in SD.

I love hunting in the snow! The last 2 years it has snowed right before opening day of the shotgun season! I hope the trend will continue this year!...Good luck and enjoy....Jim

I love the winter as well, we will have a very bad winter here in ohio, i just can feel it! Remember the snow pushes deer low! So plan accordingly
