In Washington state on the west side of the Cascade Mountains it can rain a lot during hunting season and I would like to get some suggestions about the best ways to protect your string and fletching during light and very heavy rains while still or spot and stalk hunting in the woods?
Recently I saw a tip on a TV show for water proofing the string. Now this tip was for a compound but would think if it affects a compound it will also affect a recurve when the string gets wet or soaked.
Because I shoot off the shelf and use feathers for my fletchings is there a good water proofing method or product for the feathers or should I keep them covered with a light plastic bag, like an old plastic bread bag?
As I am just getting into hunting with a recurve questions like these keep popping up in my mind.
