I like the Sept. time frame here as the late season is usually to rainy. I can deal with cold but, can't stand for everything to be wet.

When I lived in Jersey, It would've been late Fall. Now I'm back in Tejas, When ever it's not to Hot and humid.

I'll be heading to Sam Houston National Forest here in a few weeks to do some scouting for Deer and Hogs. When I find some good spots I'll be going there in March/April to camp and Hog hunt.

Then back there again to Camp and Deer hunt in November/December/January. (Can only camp for 14 days a Month that will be 3 hunt/camping trips 2011)

Texas is hot most of the time. Winter has always been my favorite season & time to hunt & camp.

I love camping all year but prefer the fall/wintertime. I was just telling my wife that I much prefer camping in the winter because then I feel like I really need that campfire or woodstove. In the summer it's really just for show.

I prefer to hunt whenever there is an open season!

October is my favorite month, leaves falling and the smell of autumn in the air.  No bugs and temps cooling down.

Since I live in Texas where it gets hot early and stays hot late, when I camp, it's in April and in October.

I hunt all year around, but it depends on the temperature.

I love camping and hunting most when it's too cold for the bugs and snakes to move much. Especially love, as IC said, September in the high country. God surely dresses up the high country in the fall!

All depends on where I'm at. I like to camp and/or hunt year round. Mountains in the summer/early fall. Midwest Oct-Nov. Texas or southern states in winter-spring.  But I'm flexible, and it's all good.

I'm camping and hunting in New Mexico right now. Had some single digit temps bwith high winds, but we did fine.  Now if the deer would just cooperate......
