RE: Hunting in the rain?
Tazman is right on about what deer do given the amount of rain that is falling. On Wednesday morning, there was heavy fog and off and on light showers. I shot a doe at 6:35 am and wasn' t sure of the shot placement, so I waited. There was absolutely NO BLOOD TRAIL--not a single drop and I couldn' t find my arrow either. I had watched enough of where she ran and had done enough tracking that I found her in under 10 minutes. Be very sure of your shot and keep the distances closer than your usual max. But you can get deer during rain--especially if the rut is on.
