Your ideal hunting weather?
 
Everyone has what they think would be perfect hunting weather. I'm curious to see how everyone varies. I'd say the perfect hunt for me would be a crisp 35 degrees with little to no wind, 3 inches of snow on the ground, with it snowing at about 1/2 inch per hour.

I'll second that. Sounds like great conditions. the colder the better

I agree but with only enough snow to turn some of the leaves white. I like to hear them coming.

Some the best deer movement I have ever seen is when there is a thick, blowingfog on the ground. Seems like the deer feel more confident in this condition. I've seen some really nice buck in fog but it is hard to see to far.

I like about a foot of snow on the ground, NW wind about 5-10mph, sunny and the temps in the low teens or colder, now thats hunting to me!

i like it overcast and cold. 30-35 degrees, if it is snowing out that is a huge plus. with a 2-3 mile per hour west wind

30's and just after a fresh 3 to 4 inches of snow, no wind. But realistically, 30's and just after a rain, no wind.

I would take any weather other than this 80 degree crap here in Illinois right now....Is it October or July??????

Other than that I do like it around 30-35 with just a dusting of snow.

Agreed, its the same here in Ohio, mid 80's does nothing for my hunting...but I think the consensus on here is 30 degrees, I'll take a light SW wind for me.

35 degrees w/ a slight NW wind...mostly cloudy as for some reason it just makes me fell all cozy inside.
