[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1768901, member: 40587"] Last time I deer hunted was 1993. Sitting in a deer stand in late October, temps 80 degrees or so, fighting yellow jackets, when I saw a kinda small 8-pointer easing down the trail. I got to thinkin g" this thing will ruin before I get it drug out and hung in this heat. I got to thinking about the lake turning over and what that does to the bass. So, when he got close to my stand, I let out a yell and the thing turned a back flip.. I scared it so bad! Got out of my stand and went home and got my bass boat and headed to the lake. Ain't been again since, except to carry a grand-kid deer hunting. When I was growing up I remember freezing my a$$ off during deer season. School didn't start til after labor day, and I remember people carrying sweaters and blankets to the foot ball games. Dove season it was cool enough to wear light camo pants and ;long sleeves. By November each year it had gotten cold enough to kill hogs, and it stayed cold til March. Now a days, it is in the 90's in September and we can have 70's most of November and December. You can't bird hunt with a setter these days, because they over heat in 30-45 minutes. I think the seasons have shifted. This week we had temps 38-40 a couple of mornings...first 40 degree mornings since 1st of April. It still gets in the 70's though by 10 or 11 AM. Also when I was little, warm spring weather was here by March. Now days, we have our worst cold and any snow we might get in March. This past winter, I never had to chop ice in the water troughs a single day, which suits me fine. The year I quit deer hunting, my father-in-law and I went crappie fishing on Weis Lake on New Year's day and it was in the mid to high 70's. If this is global warming, then I am all for it! I love summer..best times in my life have been in the summer. Love what the ladies wear in the summer! :) I would love it if it was in the 90's every day. If it ain't hot enough to go swimming, and the water be luke-warm, I don't like it!!! [/QUOTE]
