For purposes of amusement, box blinds and ground blinds need not apply. The question is, are you willing to hunt from a tree or still hunt from the ground when it is raining?
Multiple choice:
A). No, I'm a wimp.
B.) Kind of a wimp, so sometimes, as long as its not raining too hard.
C). Usually, but I become a wimp if its freezing rain or raining too hard.
D.) I'm hardcore. Short of a tornado, a rainy day is a d#%n fine day for huntin'
E). I'm extra hardcore and, in fact, will go out of my way to hunt on a rainy day.

 i like your choices
i would have to say C because i usually hunt in the rain unless it is raining cats and dogs
also depends on what kind of season i have had at that point, if i have killed 2 good bucks then i might take a time out

E Light rain I go out of my way to hunt.Especially if the property I'm hunting has others on it.This affords me a good chance for a mature buck.I really like middle of day to evening if it involves a field that I'm hunting.

Pouring rain, no. Light rain, yes.
When I first saw it advertised, I thought the tree umbrella was the dumbest product ever invented. Then I tried one. Man I love those things for a rainy-day hunt!

Yeah, the tree umbrella will definitely make a huge difference. Even with the best rain gear on, it can be demoralizing hanging out in a downpoor. The umbrella takes the brunt of the discomfort away.
