I personally don't mind hunting in a steady rain, but I find it much easier to tolerate when I'm already outand it starts, versus getting out of the truck and gearing up to go when it's already pouring. I'm a little leary of climbing rain slickened trees in my climber too!

Also, to be totally honest, already having one in the freezer will definitely impact mydecision when the alarm goesoff in the morning! Might make it a little easier to sleep in and hope things look better in the p.m.
