Let it rain. I saw 6 bucks and 3 does before 7. Then the bottom dropped out for the next 2.5 hrs.

Around 4 am we had a flood...my son could not make it to the blind because of high water. He is not a happy man...still sprinkling but hopefully the water will recede enough for him to hunt this afternoon...

Sitting at stand when the rain quit. I thought, man their going to start moving now. Did not see a deer this morning. Heading back out at 3 this afternoon because I don't have to kill a deer to have fun deer hunting.........but, it would be nice.

I am guessing it washed out opening weekend across much of the state - I drove 3.5 hours home this morning and it rained the entire time - our place was a total mess

Same, saw one small buck. Drove from Lewisville to Glen Rose and it rained the entire way, then another two hours in the blind. Never going to complain about rain though.

Went to the lease Thursday night. As I drove up in Red River county the bottom fell out, literally flooded most of the lease. Hunted Friday last day of bow season there and then rifle today . Saw absolutely nothing, no tracks at any feeder not even pig tracks and I have tons of pigs. Oh well will try next time.

I will always take the rains, my first drought was the 1950's, any rain and too much rain is better than no rain.

It rained pretty much all day Sat. Saw more bucks than doe. Only 2 doe that morning. Bucks kept trotting by to check out where I put corn to check if doe where there. It was a fun hunt IMO. Didnt shoot anything though.
