I'm headed to the blind this morning! Luckily I only live 8 miles from it. It's pretty iced up here in Erath Co, be careful out there fellas! Who else is going to brave out the ice and cold? Oh and my wife thinks I'm really crazy.

Getting there and hunting is the easy part. Cleaning/processing an animal in this weather is where the real work begins.

Grandad always told me some of his best deer hunts was in the nastiest weather. I would call this pretty nasty!

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Not me, my life is more important than hunting, plus anyone else who might be on the roads that could possibly get into an accident.
You can always go hunting, you can't bring your life back! Think of your family too!

I'm in. 26 degrees and sleeting like crazy. No deer yet, but I do have 5 squirrels that have ventured out. They will go about 8# each.
When all is said and done, there's nothing left to say or do!
