re: Deer Hunting in the Rain?

The best thing about hunting in the rain is no one else is hunting in the rain.

A friend killed his biggest buck after a tremendous rain was letting up. All of the hunting sites in the club were flooded. He walked knee deep to a stand, sat and waited, and there it was. Everyone else had stayed in.

Correct. My dogs track much better during or right after it rains. The exception is a sustained downpour. Dry and hot is when scenting conditions are bad.

Right after it rains is when I think it’s the worst, especially in Louisiana when it’s a touch of humidity.
