Too windy...Too warm
Biggest buck I have killed to date was on October 15, 2011 during the "October lull" (keep in mind it is a PA buck). Temps in the upper 50's, low 60's. Winds 20-40 mph with insane gusts. (I was praying while I was in the stand a few times lol). Dad thought I was a little crazy to head out but you can't kill them on the couch!
That a nice buck, I'm gonna be hunting on the PA Maryland border next month for the first time, I've only hunted in Texas. It's gonna be different but fun.
