I hadn't been able to get out to my hunting site for over a month with needing a new prosthetic limb. Yesterday I was able to walk out to grab the SD card out of the trail camera. It captured a young buck with very interesting headgear.
The last time I hunted it was mid-October and fall. Now it is snow covered and mid-November with about a 30 degree drop in temperature. My leg still needs adjusting but I should be able to get out to do some limited hunting.
I usually carry a lot of extra clothes with me when I hunt at this time of year. Needing to use two walking sticks to aid in my balance, along with the uncertainty of how much extra weight I can carry on my new prosthesis will make the year's hunt more challenging. Not to mention if I need to adjust the number of ply socks I have on while I am outside in the cold. I'd have to get at my leg through a lot of gear in the freezing cold to do it. Sounds chilly! Oh what we will do for the sake of a hobby!
