Well now my 10 degree snow covered hunt doesn't quite seem so bad anymore..Actually hunting with snow on the ground is awesome, you seem em easier and it's a helluva lot easier to track. Even the 10 degrees isn't that bad as long as you dress for it, and you get used to it after awhile. I can't imagine walking through the brush and about step on a rattlesnake...*shiver* Call me a nancyboy but no thank you..

Been there,done that!Rifle,CO. 1994. Both within 3hrs!

I figured you Florida and Georgia boys would mention Sand Nats...... Those Suck

I did!No-Seeums.

REbel Hog, You da Man.

I don't know if it was bias or what--but you forgot ot mention the wild boars(HOGS) coming out from under your feet in the palmettoes!!

I agree with that. You can see them quite a ways out with a good snowcover. Problem is....they can see you too. I always get a kick out of setting stands up for bowseason that I can barely find in October when bowhunting because they are concealed so good. Come middle of December you can see them from the road a mile away.

I think unzipping my ground blind while it's still dark and getting in it to be greeted by a rattlesnake would absolutely freak me out.

Ha! HA!, that's so common we don't even give ita thought!

[:-] Are they that dangerous though? From what I've seen they can't see 1 foot in front of them. I've also seen that they don't mind charging people either[:-]

NY, we don't worry about the piney rooters, these are the one's that will attack and follow your scent with thier eye's closed!
