Late Season Mornings for Mature Bucks w Cold/Snow?

Unread postby johndeere506 » Thu Jan 10, 2019 7:20 am

I normally don't hunt mornings late season, especially on a food source. I have seen some daylight pics of good bucks in the mornings with snow and cold though.
I hunted Ohio last weekend for the muzzy weekend and the weather was warm and deer werent moving. I thought I was done for the year after that. I just checked the forecast and my area down there and its going to snow saturday 3-5 inches, and taper off sunday. Now Im trying to talk myself (and my wife....lol) into me going down one last time. The neighbor put out a bunch of corn at the bottom of the ridge, and I know the good bucks were hitting it at night last weekend. Have you had success late season mornings like this? If not I was going to drive 5 hours each way just for the evening sit. Morning is do able, i just wont get to sleep that night at all. Maybe I can swing it one last time, just dont want to ruin a high probability evening sit.

I was really determined to get my first OH buck this year, the drive is still here for sure.....

If you have the opportunity to hunt then go for it!!!!
Your not going to make it happen sitting at home.
Thats why i try to hunt ANY available opportunity- regardless of the weather conditions.
