I'm banking on the snow staying away on the South mountains (5A) where I'll hopefully be in a tree in the a.m. Light drizzle I can handle, but man I hate a downpour or being caught in an ice storm. Also banking on a few smokepolers pushing a few my direction. I'll be letting the inline in the cabinet and hoping for a good buck. Seen too many over the years carrying that inline in October, including a ten point one year. Gotta let it sit and keep on bowhunting.
