Rut heat wave...

Will it change your tactics other than hunting in your camo thong? Supposed to be in the lower 70s in southern Ohio.

Dang that's no good. Low 70's probably won't matter as far as movements but up near 80 and I think they shut down during the day

Ever let tent camping in 90* weather stop you from getting some?

 

[BlueSpruceOutfitters]

Yeah, even the upper 60's will shut the daylight movement down. Damn weather. Morning will be key

We'll just grill out more this weekend rather than hot soups. Deer will still be out

The ESE winds they’re calling for in the area I’ll be hunting will be more detrimental than the temps, i think. Oh well, I’ve got 3 days off and I’ll be out there every one of them. I think mornings and evenings near bedding will be key. Also active scrape lines. Who knows

 

[jagermeister]

I’m glad I got my licks in this past week. That being said, if I was hunting in the heat I would likely hunt just as hard. I would just try to get more aggressive and get closer to doe bedding areas.

Yes, yes I have actually. Sometimes you gotta ask yourself if it's really worth it

Just when you think you know someone

Yes. Yes, I have. Woke up naked. (Before kids.) Wife walked to bath house to pee in the morning and left tent open. Someone probably got a good view that next morning.
