would you hunt in a storm like this?

The other day was very stormy. I got picked up from school and it was raining....Got dressed up and in car by 3. We started making our way into the woods. Its raining bad now and the wind picked up like crazy. Out of nowhere....hail! No joke it was hailing on our way to thge stand. They were the size of a raisin about. I got to my stand and the hail still going and i hear air raids. Not sure if for hail or tornado. But they were definetly in another town/county. My dad let me at the base of the tree till the raids and hail stopped while he walked the 80 or so yards to his stand. The hail and rain and wind died. I got up into the stand, hooked up, and the wind started again. It wasnt too bad. but i was in a real thick tree that wasnt very tall and lots of big branches so i thought i would be fine. 20 mins passed and the clouds go away and its sunny. 5 or 6 minutes later, the bachelor group of 6 come out right under my stand..pretty cool i see them right after hail. Then out comes the yearling 4 i named buddy. Ive seen him withing 20 yards every day ive hunted that property so far. The rest of the day i saw does. Think its crazy the activity right after that. Would you hunt on a day like that?

Cant kill a deer if you arent in the stand !

I wouldn't be so concerned with the wind and rain as I would the fear of hitting a deer and losing the blood trail with the heavy rain. Some of my best days hunting have come during a heavy snowstorm or a rain with the rifle. With the bow, I'm more apt to stay inside and not risk it.

Seen more deer 4 bucks an 6 does today in the rain then I seen all season. I always hunt when it rains

In the original post, i meant a bachelor group of 6's. There were 3, 6's. one was a 8 without brows and 2 of them had 2 on each side with brows.

you never know what you will see in any condition but you have to be in it to win it. sounds like you had a fun hunt.

Just watch out for the lightning.

If you are comfortable to hunt in the conditions that are presented then go ahead and do it. It doesn't matter what other people think. If you don't mind it then go ahead.
