I like it when you go to the stand with one T-shirt on and by the time it's dark, you're putting on a sweat shirt and it's down right nippy when you get back to the pickup.

Colder the better, unless the windchill is in the teens or lower. Then it's chilly. But that only bother me, not the deer. Ideally, 25 at night, 40 in the daytime, cloudy skies with slight breeze carrying my scent to where it is harmless....
I've found that any time the weather is warmer than normal by 15 or 20 degrees, whether it's October or December, it's bad hunting. Unusually cold is better than unusually warm any time.

I've bow hunted when the temp was 12 degrees (which is cold down south) and a high of around 92 degrees. My favorite temp is high 30's and low 40's.....deer are usually moving and I don't have to wear too many clothes and restrict my draw.

You can tell I'm from the South. I voted 60/40. Especially with bow I don't like wearing a lot of clothes causing resistence to my draw. A cool late Oct. day. Love it when it's green oats and autumn leaves.

Give me mid 40's for a high. I love those mornings when it is in the high 20's, low 30's and you can see your breath just as the sun comes up. Everything is so quiet and then you here that first stick break. Can't beat it
