The way we're going I don't know if it is ever going to clear up.

I havent hunted the last 2 evenings. Its been raining here pretty steady.
I also have the bug so that is the main reason I am staying in. Just dont feel good enough when I get home from work. :(

In my honest opinion, most deer are like humans.

What was once a good pace to ride out a storm, may soon be the worst.

So as we do; we move to another spot and hope this one will be better.

I have taken many deer and huge ones when the weather was not the best!

Bucks like doe need to find a calmer dryer spot when one fails.

So they move.

As they move we intercept them.

And hopefully we intercept them when we can take advantage of them the most.

A well place shot will determine the outcome!

Hope this helps!
