RE: hunting in the rain
I do tend to do less moving around in the rain like the deer do. It also depends on I' m flint muzzleloading than I prefer the dryer weather or snow. I also have one of those tent outhouse blind that does keep me dry in the rain. I put a tarp over the tree stand which I hope will keep me dry while I' m there.
Nothing stops me from hunting, except a sick wife. Somebody has to take care of the kids.
