What conditions will keep youinside instead of in the tree?? For me, it's heavy rain and/or strong winds..
Same thing here Vab. I don't hunt in the rain period.

Lightning ... and it better be heavy lightning ...... I hate hunting in heavy rain, but I will do it if the wind isn't real bad ...

Heat - If I sweat just sitting in my stand I will not go out, it makes me miserable.
Kudos. I have hunted in heat.....and hate it. I have to be more disciplined.

A little wind will negate some heat, though....and I'd welcome that.

the heat sucks but I do it, in fact one of my 8pts last year was in 82 degree weather and 20 mph winds. usually the heat subsides by the last 30 min of light in the fall anyways.

I don't like hunting in the heat but I still do it. Hell, if you don't hunt in the heat here in the South...you wouldn't get in a tree till November!!

T-storms and heavy rain are usually the only things that will keep me out. Winds usually subside right at "prime time" in the evening.

The condition to keep me out are usually mornings following a clear night and a full moon, and afternoons with very warm temperatures.
