RE: bowhunting in the rain
If its not raining too hard, I will usually stick it out. If its a flat downpour, then I might come out. Depends on the time of season. If its early, I will usually come out, but if it's November, I'm staying hell or high water. That is unless it thunders.
When hunting in the rain, I always let my bow air out. I like to take an air compressor and dry it off. Pay special attention to all the little nooks and crannies too.

+1 on the rain,I have found that it doesn't really bother the deer except in the case of a thunderstorm.Wax your string well and I carry a terry towel to dry my bow between showers.I enjoy hunting in the rain early season it is cooler and helps keep the blood suckers down.

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.
