Took our dog out hunting tonight and took about 10 minutes to get to her at the tree. I thought she wasn't gonna make it back home. Didn't even turn out til 11PM. And she is in shape. Your right - it's just too darn hot!

I had a post similar to this one on here a couple days ago and had a couple guys on here talking about how they would shoot their dogs if they ever got overheated and wouldn't keep hunting. HUH? And then when I called them idiots for saying something so stupid the thread got deleted (hope me saying that doesn't get your deleted).

But, yeah the heat stinks, but the dogs got it better than me, all they got to do is lay around all day and get out a little in the coolest part of the night. Me, on the other hand, got to go sweat my you know what off out in it all day! Be careful out there!

Its supposed to be in the mid 90's here in SW Michigan for the next couple days. That coupled with the very high humidity we have thanks to Lake Michigan (10 miles away) makes it impossible for me to hunt till it cools down. Wanted to go last night, but it was still 83 degrees at 1130.
I wont do that to my dog. If its too hot for me, its too hot for them, they're doing all the work.

Weatherman calling for a cool down over the weekend here. Talking about highs in the upper 80s lower 90s. Lows at night in the 60s. Now that's more like it!

The funny thing is, it won't be long til we're all complaining about how cold it is...LOL!

But they're movin'. Treed 3 last night and saw six sitting up. Tonight it was 80 at 10pm, so just treed 1 and came home. I was drippin' like a popsical and figured that was enough. Take care, Ron.

It's 86 degrees at 1:00 am with 72 percent humidity. I have not been able to hunt in almost two months. It's just been to dern hot and humid to hunt. It was 91 degrees at 10:00 pm so it has cooled a little. In the daytime it was 99 with a index of 114. When will it let up?
