Default RE: Hunting in the rain?

Well I will cover deer movement in the rain, if it is a light rain or drizlle it will have little to no effect on them, if it is pouring they are going to bed up in the thickest cover they can find.

Hunting with a bow in the rain in my book is pretty iffy, I will only take what I consider to be an absolute slam dunk shot, because if it starts to rain hard or is raining hard the blood trial will wash away pretty quickly.

One of the best times to hunt is after a long period of hard rain or snow, they come off their beds within half an hour after it stops or slows considerably.
