I've shot in most weather conditions but living in southern california, I don't come across rain too often. Since I'm heading out to Colorado in the next couple of weeks, thought I'd get some thoughts on a couple of things.
1. I might be over thinking this one but how much does rain affect arrow trajectory? Obviously it depends on how heavy the rain is and bow/arrow setup. But say on average, for a 40 yard shot with a 400g blazer equipped arrow traveling at 290fps in a "medium" downpour. Is there an effect that is significant enough to compensate for?
2. Aside from keeping the string waxed, any other gear considerations to think about while hunting in rain? Any tips/tricks are welcome.
Thanks in advance!
