    Im washing my hunting stuff today, and hanging it all out on the line to dry. Its not suppose to rain today, but it sure does look like it. That brings me to my question. If it does rain, would you re wash all of it? I was thinking that if it does rain, and I just leave it out there to dry, it wouldn't hurt anything.

    I wouldn't re-wash it if it rain. Rain water is purer in many ways than water in the washing machine. It was rinsed one more time by nature. :tu:

    Yup...I'd just let it dry...rain water is "natural".

    I prefer to leave mine out in the rain at least once and then let it air dry in the sun and breeze. Rain is the best natural wash you can use in my opinion.
