Whitetail hunting the rain

A light rain is good any time of year.
During the rut, it doesn't matter what the weather is doing...hot, cold, rain, snow...they only care about one thing. Certainly some weather gets them moving better. I find a light rain to fire things up more. Some of my best hunts have been in the most miserable conditions.
Only issue with rain is the blood getting washed away. Make sure you put a good shot on...as you always should.
 
Whitetail rifle opener here tomorrow (Saturday 11-2) morning...rain forecasted next 3 days & we badly need it.
 
When it comes to whitetail hunting, I sit blinds in the rain because F getting wet. Does it slow down the action? Sure. But unless its a torrential downpour, they still need to eat/drink.

Like most have said, hunting right after a big storm (rain, wind or snow), is a good time to hit the woods. If the deer have been hunkered down using up energy to stay warm, they'll be hungry and up on their feet as soon as they are comfortable to do so.
