No thanks. That sounds miserable. If you'd like to compare weather, come visit us in August. We can walk the Francis Marion National Forest. It'll only be 105ish degrees with a heat index of 120 coupled with 90%relative humidity.
Come play. Bring snake boots.

I hunt on a 4,800 acre farm on the Savannah River Just south of Augusta. Over the years I have probably killed 50 hogs, all under 100 yards. The only way to get pigs in an open field is to bait them, so yo just as well bait them at 50 yards. I mostly kill my pigs during deer season, It's just hot to shoot them in the summer and the deer flies will eat you up.

I have several friends around Akin they don't have any hogs.

Pal of mine in Warrenville has quite a few.
I know that Jackson has their fair share too.

When my cousin came up for the funeral, he was cold here in Virginia. He said SC and GA has him spoiled.

Yeah beginning of bow season is pretty dern miserable in SC. U have to make sure u have your safety vest hooked up when in deer stand. Not from falling but from getting carried away by them bald eagle sized skeeters. And scent control is a beast!

To be fair, cold to us is anything under 40degrees.
I'll go ahead and say it, y'all can keep that long winter with the white death from the sky. To hell with that Donner Party nonsense.

LOL! Yeah, that was something I had a hard time adjusting to when I came down here. All my experience told me that deer don't move much without getting pushed unless it is below freezing. Below 0°F is even better. The season is half over before it's cool enough to get me out into the woods.

I guess these southern deer just don't know that.

Have you tried a Thermocell? Walmart has them & it's the best $10.00 you'll ever sped.

 

[Remmy700]

Naw I haven't. Back when I lived at home and hunted was in the 90s. I think I remember it coming out after I left home and got stationed in FL.
