    I have the same problem with my Fishing Cabin only the wind is mostly coming from inside.

    I lived in AZ for 3 years and never really seen any deer. Now I have been Iowa for 4 years and have seen more deer than I can count. I have almost hit them in my car more than a couple times. Friday night I had one almost run out in front of me. I probably could have stopped and pulled out a gun to shoot it 50 feet away. Here is IA, its not too hard to find them and I see them on crossing the interstate all the time and if there is water around then you are about guaranteed to seem them out in the fields.

    Here in olel Virginia where I live you have to use a blackpowder, shotgun or bow on deer. Talk about hunting or long range target practice. How about ground hogs at 500 - 600 yards. We all know that every part of our great country has different aspects of hunting. Talk to someone from Montana or the Rockies and they will tell you if you don't walk 15 miles and climb several thousand feet you have been hunting yet. The thing is, we have the freedom, or what's left of it, to persue our hobbies as we see them. Either banging on a keyboard, striking an arc, fishing or hunting. That is the persuit of happiness.

    Funny thing about shotgun or muzzle loader hunting is there is not much difference anymore. Some of these new slug guns with riffled barrels and sabots will shoot 150-200 yards easily.

    Yeah, seems everyone is trying to improve on everything. I get strange looks when I still measure my powder instead of using the preformed pellets. Just an old habit/hobby. Doesn't take much to hunt from the edge of a field. The woods are different, limited visibility and all. I used to hunt in WV with a rifle. Anything within 400 yds (worked out strip mine) was no match. Kind of took all the sport out of it. Now, the most yardage I can see and shoot is 60 yds. Sometime so close you can watch their eyes move. Now that is hunting when you have to wait for a deers head to get behind a tree so you can bring your rifle up and hold it there for awhile.
