Interesting question but I have my doubts.
swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo
You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

Cold weather doesnt put bears into hibernation,lack of a food source does.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Cold as ice!

No, not at all. It's the higher humidity of the summer months. This is my thinking too. I don't run bear...at least on purpose I use my own dogs for running coon. The scenting conditions definitely change with the season. Higher humidity is what creates the tunnel effect you're talking about. I've seen dogs drift a cold track by a good 30 yards one side or the other and run it like they were tied to it. Or tree a layup that hasn't even touched the ground yet. I've also seen the same dog unable to determine the direction of travel on a smoking hot track on the early frost of a October/November night. Seemingly makes no sense but it definitely happens.
