My issue with hunting in the rain has never been about getting wet. I have heard that you should not bow hunt in the rain because if you do stick one the blood trail will wash away quickly. I used to bow hunt quite a bit and then got out of it because I lost hunting rights to my old spot. I have now bought my own property and been back into it for 2 seasons and will never stop again. Maybe not hunting in the rain because of the blood trail is old school. Does anyone think that should be a concern with todays bows and broadheads? I know the hit is still important and I am a fairly good shot out to about 30 yards (4 to 5 inch groups). I won't go over that.

txmarshmonkey - To answer the question I do not at this time hunt in the rain and I have told my 16 year old son not to as well. Should I do some rethinking about this? I have always felt that the deer do move more in a light rain.
