Will be heading out to zone 5 in a few weeks and am curious if all the row crops have been picked. There are a lot standing here in SW MI.

Have you had much snow and is there still any on the ground?

Thx Bill

Bill We had snow on the ground for much of Nov but it is gone now. We had the coldest rut hunt that I can ever remember. So far Dec has been quite mild compared to Nov, and I think the for-cast is for 55 degrees this weekend and into next week. I don't see any snow in the near future either. Most of the crops have been picked now but it is kinda spotty.

Numbers overall are down but still quite a few deer but those age class bigger bucks are low in numbers. Depends on where you are hunting and how bad the EHD was in your area.

Hope you have a great hunt and stay safe!

Thank you Mike.

I wont be out until a few days after Christmas so I'm still hoping for a cold front. Need some bitter weather to concentrate deer on any standing food.

November was the same here for us with Dec being unusually mild. Woke up to 47 degrees this morning lol

Best wishes!
