I've always had good luck right after a heavy rain. The deer really seem to hold tight during bad weather and then move around after it breaks. I've had especially good luck during the pre-rut/rut when hunting near scrapes after a good rainstorm. The bucks really seem to want to get them freshened up once the weather clears.

Absolutely!! I'll be out there the first minute after a heavy rain(or wind) subsides no matter what time of day. I agree that the bucks like to get after those scrapes after it rains.
