Ah yes, is because of the weather and global warming ....lol ...... dont know about you, but there have been some seasons recently that have been darn cold, this being one. I can remember it being 13 degrees so for multiple days during a vacation or two in Nov. in some recent years ... same for some cold Halloweens ... only a sane person dosnt buy into this man made global warming crap .. there is 16 days to the **** gun season, IMO, it is waaaay to long and a need to be moved back a week to 10 days ... IMO !! ... I am sooo glad I quit gun hunting for deer ...sheesh !!
