Get out there! it snows all the time here in maine and we do fine. I find that deer actually like to move in a snowstorm as long as its not too windy. Try cutting a track and chasing it like they used to back in the old days. where quiet clothing and keep your eyes off the ground. As hard as it is to not stare at the track keep your eyes scanning in every direction cause they like to circle around once they know their being followed.Good luck

Usually the day before it snows big and the next couple days after the storm passes are really good.
