I went out this morning to fling a few arrows....it was -22 degrees. It had warmed up slightly by time I got around to taking this picture. I shot exactly 1 arrow and came in. Thank God there's no wind....

Roger- 1 arrow is not "a few". Go back out and shoot at least 2 more. Dang it's cold up there!!! Stay by the fire as much as you can.

Brrrr! Welcome to my world.... Heater body suit is the only way to handle those temps.. You're right about the wind!

And btw...since your wool is no longer good to you, just send it to me! Ha

It's warm here in eastern CT. 8*F.
I shoot in the basement. Only 13 yards, but warm enough for more than one shot.

I went out to feed the birds and replace their water and just about froze my fingers off.

It's a balmy 5 degrees here in Indy. Of course, my kids have been on two hour delay for 3 straight days. I don't know, I don't ever remember getting 2 hour delays because it was cold.

I'll be out slinging arrows around 3P. It'll be 18 degrees by then and plenty warm enough.

Stay warm bowman

For the life of me, I just can't imagine why anyone would want to live in a place that is colder than the inside of my freezer.

But, to each his own. I'm sure than cabin fever has its own benefits.

Just got in from walking the dog. I was in shorts, he didn't wear anything but his collar. I'm heading out to do some stumping (shorts and tee shirt). Here is a picture from a recent hike.

Just couldn't help myself, as I noticed that it was snowing at home, too. This snowbirding stuff isn't a bad gig.

Here is why we stay....this is the creek our ShreHaven camp sits on...although this pic is 4 MONTHS OLD

! Winter stays long this far up...

centaur could you send some of that our way?

I think my friends and family are sick of hearing me say I'm moving to Florida. A typical comment is "You know you'll miss your deer hunting..." My response "There are deer there....and pork is my favorite vegetable....."

A weather service probe near michigamme (about 30 min. for Iron River) had -40 yesterday morning! Not to far from shrewheaven. I had -35 yesterday before work. My dog doesn't ever want to be out.

LOL! Well put brother. I am here in Petoskey Michigan wondering why I live here. My wife tells me that my hair is getting a bit grey around the edges. I am sure it's freeezer burn.

Roger
I question your sanity for attempting that shot in those temps:)

ron w · « **Reply #19 on:** February 20, 2015, 12:34:00 PM »

I have had enough.......moving south in the not to distant future. Winter used to be fun but not any more...........going to Georgia where I can hunt and fish most of the year.
