I'm not too sure about this - I suspect he'd still be okay with a long-sleeve t-shirt.

When you have only 9 days to hunt, and no bait is allowed, you can't sit inside on bad days if you want to kill a deer. There's no agriculture around that area, just big woods. Few deer per sq. mile so you've got to cover a LOT of ground to get them.


I don't know. Call me crazy, but with low deer numbers and directly proportional low temp numbers, I'm thinking you DON'T have to cover a lot of ground, I'm thinking you actually just go somewhere else to hunt! grin
