I absolutely love late-season hunting. The deer settle back in a pattern, there's usually good snow on the ground to expose their secrets, and corn becomes an huge temptation.
But not only that, I love the woods in the late season. A good blanket of snow on the ground that lightly dusted the trees, the foliage is all off and you can see a long ways through the woods. You can see and hear the deer coming a long ways off. Sure it's cold but it's just an awesome time to be in the woods. The surrounding land owners aren't out riding four wheelers, shooting guns, or driving metal fence post with a tractor attachment like last weekend. Most everyone has retreated to hibernation for the winter.
The problem is, we have a little over a month of season left a no damn snow in sight. It needs to get nasty, like a 10 inch snow in one night and below freezing for two weeks nasty. Yard these suckers up and get on em snow.
