I hunted snowshoe hare in Wisconsin a number of years ago & it was in the single digits so we waited until 11 a.m. to take the dogs out. I thought that was cold until I hunted Montana last year, it was -20 w/ wind chill of -36, so effn cold I was the only one of 8 hunters in camp to go out. We glassed a meadow/hayfield that had 150+ elk in it, only 5 of which were legal bulls & I shot the largest at 347 yds. w/ my .338 Win Mag uphill & scoped the sh*t out of my eye. Never in my life do I want to hunt when it's that cold. I get cold when it's in the 20s here in VA sitting in a deer stand At least in MT we were spotting & stalking, unfortunately the whole week was below 20 degrees & we did more spotting than stalking...
