I was thinking of hunting from the ground this Saturday evening. I'd probably set up next to a pine tree that's blown down. It's supposed to be raining and high around 60 here in VA. I've only hunted from the ground a few times (no success so far, but very close with a nice buck once..foot scraped on a leaf when I turned around for a 15 yard shot and the big boy bolted).

Do you think rain helps or hurts hunting from the ground?
