What is that bright white ball in the sky at night?  What happened to our cloud cover?
It seems like it is more difficult to spot deer feeding during shooting time when it's clear skies and a full moon. What have you guys experienced?

 I was laughing to myself a few days ago when the forecast called for rain and solid cloud cover and I thought I was going to miss the best opener if a few years. Now I see it's going to be just like the last several year's unfortunately.... Full moon and clear skies = I choose to sleep in :chuckle:.

Ditto, even my daughters goats were feeding in the dark this AM. They never do that. :dunno:

I love it!  Accuweather shows a "feels like" temp of 21 at night.  I've always seen the bucks run around chasing the ladies after a couple nights below freezing.  For some reason they're necks are much bigger then too??????
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

Yea especially after the krap I was in last Friday at 7000 feet then to have it turn the next day.
