Mojo batteries

Just got out the old mathews motorized duck to test it out and could not get it working.
The two batteries I had were dead as doornails and would not take a charge.
This seems to be a pattern for me the past few seasons so I thought about it a minute. It hurt a little but it dawned on me that the last thing I'd ever do on the last day of the season was charge batteries. I packed up and drove home from like 45 degree weather into the deep freeze and dangit I bet I let them batteries froze.
The thing that keeps a lead-acid type battery from freeezing is being charged up. Charged up batteries won't freeze hardly but a dead one will freeze at 32 F like water. Same goes for car batteries. D'oh. I shoulda known. Had to go buy new ones.
Better check your mojos y'all.
