See Hoyt, last nights lows were in the low 50's, same with tomorrow night. Bad here. I walked in and out with a t-shirt today on November 7th...under armour shirt and little fleece top.....what is wrong with this picture in November? Its like beach weather and grilling.

Yea the weather has definitely played a factor. However, try going 8 sits and seeing only 6 deer total. In theearly season I was surrounded by deer every single sit. I'd say 25-30 sits so far this season, and the first 15-20 sits were the most productive.I think many have dispersed, and the rut is being affected by the temps. Who knows

Brett I think in a month we are all going to be talking about how damn cold it is outside. The way the acorn mast was this year, I believe we are in for a very cold winter. I was thinking about it today...We have already been hunting over a month with about 1 1/2 left. Think of all the hunting we all do around Christmas. I will bet a steak dinner on it that we have snow in a month.

We have had a terrible acorn drop this year in Northern VA....almost every hunter I have talked to, some of them I have talked to for years on Quantico say the same thing...NO acorns. Makes it very difficult to pattern the deer. That being said, I am happy with how many deer I have seen and been around so far this year. I have seen as many deer so far as I did all of last year.

What really sucks is that we get two days of cool weather and it warms right back up [:@][&:]
