RE: Raining & Hunting
I dont mind a real light rain...... but even if it gets steady Ill usually stay ....... but if it gets hard Ill leave. But I like it damp because the leaves make it REAL hard to stalk in to my stand quiet...
One of my memorable deer was taken in the rain. I had been hunting 7 days and passed up a few deer.... well on the last day of my hunt I woke up to a fairly steady rain....almost a 'medium' rain..... well I went anyway because I had been chasin a really nice 10 point all week. Well I was on stand about 45 minutes when an 8 point came down the trail - I had passed up this one 2 days earlier...... well considering I was a little cold, and a lot wet, I took the shot and dropped it inside of 20 yards..... in the rain... it was a great hunt.... in the rain.
