IDEAL HUNTING WEATHER FOR BOWHUNTERS?
Since most of us in the northeast have been experiencing unseasonably and very hot and dry weather conditions for this bow season (Fall), I was wondering what kind ofweather (archers)most other hunters would rather hunt in.

gimme 30s and snow the last 2 weeks of the season!!!!
that being said, i dont MIND anything lower than 70 for the high. i enjoy those 60-70 degree crisp fall days for some reason. i really like when it drops down from 70 to 50 and lows are in the 30s...like last weekend...boy was that nice hunting...coldest bowhunting ive seen in 2 years..

Well, I must admit I really like hunting when it's in the 40's during the day and below freezing at night. 
I remember a number of years ago I was early season archery hunting in Bradford county PA and on open day the high was 81 degrees [:@], but6 weeks later on the last day there was 5 to 6 inches of snow on the ground. [:-]I had a blast that day even tho I didn't take an animal.
