I enjoy hunting in the rain, although I now shoot Blazers instead of feathers. Even with fletch-dry, you'll be shooting bare shafts if it rains too hard.

There's no such thing as bad weather........just improper equipment. I'll hunt in the rain any day as long as it's not severe storms.
Just remember the "6 P's" and you will be fine.

RE: bowhunting in the rain
I've hunted many times in the rain - and I've had some good successes then too. However, the bloodtrailing really sucked and it took me some time and God's blessing to actually find what I've shot over the years when there's no visible trail to follow.
I won't hunt in a downpour or blowing rain. I hunt for enjoyment and I ain't having fun sitting in a downpour![:'(]

RE: bowhunting in the rain
Climbed a tree 2 years ago in 'Bama, to see an ominous looking black cloud approaching. I sat it out, literally being rocked by the storm--and I wasn't in a small tree either! Isat it out knowing what was going to happen, and sure enough--5 minutes after it stopped, a nice 10 came behind me, but no shot. Another 5 minutes and here comes a 9 in front of me, and I dropped him right there! I love rain!
