Snow for the weekend

[22lex]

Sounds like some flurries are going to be here for the weekend.

This is a great time to get your nose to the ground, find some tracks, and place some late season stands for muzzleload/archery hunting. The key this time of the year is to be as mobile as you can, and not be afraid to get out there and find where the animals are moving to and from in your area.

Most likely these situations are going to put you very close to feeding and bedding areas, as the deer will want to conserve as much energy as they can; ie not move as far, so you will have to pay close attention to your wind at all times.

Also keep in mind the deer are "trained" from other seasons so any foreign movement, sound, and smell is going to put them on ultra high alert. This calls for soft clothes, stands that don't creak, and everything else that can bust you or make a sound to be left behind

Good luck to everyone this weekend, and here's to some red snow!

Light flurries have started in the Black Hills.  I will try to send them your way.

Send a few 180" 5X5 mulies while you are at it, along with some 150" 5X5 whitetails. These 90 inch MN bucks just aren't cutting it for me!

Bring on the snow!  I have one really thick woods to hunt and it would help me pick the movement out better in the low light situations we seem to find ourselves in all to often in the late season!!

2 inches or therabouts near Effie.
I have heard 6 inches near warroad.
