I love hunting during heavy rain. The deer are hunkered down in the heaviest cover that thet can find. They are no different than people in that respect. Not too keen on getting wet. I find them in the pines,spruce, cedars bedded down. A plus, is that "most" of the other "hunters" don't want to get their feathers wet, so, the area is mine. Occasionally find one out in the open fields, but most times a short walk is in order, followed bu a short drag.
