I hear ya, there is just something about the late season that does it for me. There are less and less guys around, SNOW, the deer have to eat, you get a good idea of what made it thru the season, what might be around for next year and did I mention SNOW!!!!!!! I hunt public land in SE Wisconsin and it seems like there is NOBODY around during the late season, except when you want to hunt a particular spot and running kinda late....
