    I have run into poor weather the past several years in a row during my hunting vacations so I know how you feel.

    I feel your pain. Every year I pick either the first or second full week in November to take off work, and every year I get the week with the worst week. I have off from the 7th to the 15th this year, and it's supposed to hit 60 degrees for a day or two in there, and mostly be in the 50's. :rolleyes:

    I know how you feel.

    I paid 700.00 to hunt 3 days in western IL. Pretty much lost a whole day to wind and rain and couldn't get into some of the good spots because of all the water. :(

    Now the rut is coming on and I feel like I'm coming down with something. Ugh.

    Mid 60's...that's bloody beach weather! The showers might help to cool things down. LOL

    Chin up, you're water tight! Get em!

    Hey Brett, that's what it looked like last week for this week. It will probably change by then. The good thing is...next week it probably won't matter (I hope). Good luck!

    Yes, temperatures will subdue deer movement but this time of year with a good moon I think you're going to see some movement for sure. Last year the day I missed my buck the high was in the 70's. So fear not, you can still get the job done despite the moderate temps!!
