Who's going out in the snow this weekend, do you like hunting in snow storms?

It looks like a snow storm for Kansas this weekend. Told the wife I had to go. She doesn't understand...
I am leaving from Colorado this afternoon, get into Kansas late tonight.
I have had great success in the past with fresh snow.
Do you guys agree, what do you think??
 
Hunting phez in snow is great. Me and the dog need a weekend off and we chose this one, the first snowy one of the season. Maybe there will another weekend of snow. A bit of special prep is needed for snow hunting: cut all the hair you can from between the pads of the dog's paws; otherwise ice balls form which will stop your dog while it tries to pull them off.
 
Hunting fresh snow is the best! Most of the dog pics I post here have snow, a dog and three roosters in them! Inlcuding one this season from 11/19 north of Huron.
 
I'm going to try and get out west on Monday, hopefully the Snow will still be around. There is nothing better than hunting pheasant with a nice snow on the ground.

I do hope the winter isn't too harsh though, with bird numbers already down the pheasant need some favorable conditions this winter and spring to make a comeback. I was out in Barton county for the opener and the birds were scarce, the following weekend I headed out to Rooks County a little further west and north and things weren't much better.

Good Luck to all. :cheers:
 
just got in from some killer hunting in the snow and to make it all worth while my youngest son shot not 1 but 2 birds he had his first and second kill all in the same hour
