The coldest I can remember hunting in is -4 plus whatever the windchill was. Ill hunt regardless of how cold it is, its the wind thats the deciding factor. Whenever it hits the single digits and that feels like a heat wave, then you know its cold.

It didn't get too cold when I was hunting december this year 0 was the coldest. I wouldn't rethink until 20 below. I once went snowmobiling and ice fishing on a record breaking day of 54 below.

It have to be well below 0 for me to call it too cold.

I also could not vote since the scale didn't go low enough.

The coldest I have hunted in was a few years ago, the windchill was -64

You win the big ball contest. I'm hardcore but with a windchill like that the wind must have been howlin', I would have stayed inside next to my wood burning stove that morning.

It's almost always hot down here, so if you get me between 0-10 I bet I would turn into a Popsicle

If it gets well below 0, I'm done! I bought some new boots from Cabela's. They're a toasty 2000 grams!!!
