[QUOTE="Deer Slayer, post: 1633597, member: 8855"] My rain gauge is bumping 4". The rain gauge on my food plots was over 3 1/2" when I left tonight after teaching a 9 hour hunter ed class. My students were able to see 2 family units several times during the day as they came and went from the feeder. After dark a nice buck was in the front yard. There were 5 does and fawns together all day enjoying the cool rain. I know my plots will really come on now. Bassin - You are correct as always. Bacteria is the basis for the human odor.
