What have u had success with? Pines, cutover, hardwoods early morning or mid day?

Hardwoods, Ridge tops, mornings. Killed a doe on 5 DEC 2009 when it snowed a good bit. It was the first deer I took off that particular property and that evening the Tide rolled and made Tebow cry. It was a good day!

Killed a few in it and it's fun. Heavy stuff seams to shut them down a little but what's in store tomorrow should be great.

jb20 the last two times it snowed during deer season, I slept till 7:00, got up, went to the shooting house, and had a good buck dead soon after. It is my experience, around here they ain't gonna move much early, but about 8:00 or so, after the sun gets up good and it gets quiet, they'll get about a little bit.

movement varies wildly, everything to total shutdown to everydamndeermoves, and everything in between those two extremes. I like hunting em in the snow, have killed a couple in it.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I love hunting in it, especially being there when it first starts and watching the world turn white. It has seemed to be either feast or famine, like Fred said, as for deer movement in the snow. If I have a chance I'll hunt it.

I didn't hunt last year when it snowed in January but when I checked my camera, I wish I had. 10:32-doe walks in front of my tree stand, 10:34--nice buck follows. Not sure I would have hunted that particular stand that day but had zero chance of killing him from my house.

Track them sumbeeches like a Benoit.

On the distance I like to walk to my stands:
