RE: Hunting in the rain
Periods of rain areoften my favorite. I spend virtually all my time still hunting. I would recomend getting out of the stand and slowly stalking. Deer movement is definetly reduced during times of rain. However, there is no reason why you can't move to them.I would look at this as an opportunity, not a hardship.
BTW...the buck you see on the left under my name was taken while still hunting in the rain.....
