i hunted friday and sat in the mess on eastern shore of md/del. i did a lil stand huntung which is horrible in this weather. i have much more luck stalking in the wind/rain then stand hunting. its alot more fun and less cold because your on the move and always on edge. i find some thick pines and slowly move along stoping every 3 steps or so. always see deer hunting like this. i actually look forwwad to the nasty weather due to the ground hunting!
