Warm Weather for opening weekend on gun

[doemasters18]

I just saw the weather report for this weekend. Low 70's in some areas with lows at night around 55. Has anyone had any luck opening weekend of gun in warm weather? I know deer will still be moving just from the presence of everyone and thier brother in the woods opening morning but has anyone had any luck in november with warm weather?

Warm Weather Hunting

Two of my largest Bucks I have taken was on warm windy days. I harvested this 12 pt on a warm 70 degree windy evening hunt in 2010. Best of luck to you.

Back in 2005, I took two Doe, in the late afternoon, during firearm season, temp was 83*. Had to skin/cut them & ice them down that very evening, worked until 1:30 am!!!!!!

This forecast is basically identical to Nov 14th of last year, and I saw more rutting activity that day than any other year. If youre in the right area (i.e. on with a hot doe in it) there isnt much that will keep activity down this time of year. I really thought Id be wasting a morning in the woods that day, but coulndt pass up any chance to be in the woods. Now its made me a bit more optimistic about bad hunting weather this time of year. Dont get me wrong, I would much rather have a frost on the ground and highs in the 50s, but all it takes is that one hot doe this time of year.

Thanks for the input. Hopefully one like that strolls by me sat morning. Cant get out in the woods until then. Unforunately the orange army will be out too. I guess Ill just have to deal with all the other folks in the woods too.

The rut is on so they will be moving.

They will be moving early morning. I killed a nice 8 point last year at 0745. It warmed up that afternoon, I remember that mostly because I got stung by a bee after it landed on my face after I ate a Peanut butter and Jelly sandwich.

This will be 3 warm gun openers in a row. I, too, have killed my two best bucks on warm days during the rut and one wasn't until 10:10am and probably already 60 degrees.
