    What's the best weather and time of day to hunt for you?

    Best weather for me is winter and early spring. I prefer the snow so if I place a bad shot i can track it a little bit easier. Best time of day for me is when ever :p Altho i would prefer to go around 9am so I can eat my Wheaties ( frosted to be exact ) and have a cup of joe.

    Best weather is 25-35 with some snow on the ground. Overcast is preferred. Barometric pressure dropping or rising. Evenings are better because the hunting is always getting better till it's dark. I also don't enjoy getting up early in the morning.

    Whenever I can get out is the best time for me. Cold, hot, rainy, or sunny I don't care.

    Wind

    What about if the wind is blowing 20-25 mph? I question whether I can take an ethical shot with a bow at those wind speeds. How do you guys feel about the wind speed?
