Took 2 hours sitting in the rain to get this one. 11 points, 115 pounds.

Anybody else suffer through with any success?

Deer don't move in the rain.......wait, that's what hunters who stay home in bad weather say.......never mind.

That is a darn nice buck. congrats to you sir.

Congrats! Here in AZ we get one deer tag a year and the season is a week long. I'll be out there rain or shine, count on that!

I love to hunt the fronts right before & right after so I stay all day to make
sure I aint late. ground blinds make it easy rain or shine.

Love to hunt in the rain especially pre-rut. Have shot/seen some of my biggest bucks setting up near thick cover, pines etc. the does bed at while raining. Seems like the 'big boys' take this doe bedding opportunity to move alot for scent checking.

Congrats on your buck!

.284 said exactly the same thing I was thinking.

Someone really needs to tell these deer they are susposed to stay bedded down.

Congrats on a fine looking Buck, I mean, buck.
