I can't stand deer hunting in the rain. Duck hunting in the rain on the other hand is a different story. I may deer hunt in a light rain, but a moderate or heavy rain, no way. That's just me. I do love to hunt just after a long heavy rain though. After a long heavy rain, just about every critter in the woods will move. I know deer will move in a light to moderate rain, but in heavy rain, pretty much nothing is going to move.
