No Snow. Works great on feather's, rug rest's and non rubber silencer's.

I just noticed the error in my last post. I use rustoleum never wet.

The 'Tire Wet" or "Tire Black" products like Westleys of one made by Armour All (not regular armour all) that is used to keep tires shiny and black works the best of anything I've tried.  it was mentioned above.

I use the powder also.  The good thing about using it is when you shoot an animal the blood cleans off easily and is good as new.

TRAP

Canada Goose Feathers and Natural Barred Wild Turkey feathers will repel water better than most treated domestic turkey feathers.

I've used the powdered silicon stuff on domestics and it seems to work well.

Bread bag and a rubber band. Although I have used Scotch guard spray too. Never tried camp dry spray but did try Tire Wet and absolutely hated it! What a mess! and stink!

Yankee, a very thin coat of tire wet worked into feathers with fingers will air dry and loose the stink after 3-4 days.
Need to try the camp dry. The powder flies of some with the shot and I don't like breathing the stuff.
shoot straight shoot often

Possum Head

I hunt with full confidence with saturated arras because on occasion I'll practice with them that way intentionally. I'm far more concerned with trailing a deer in wet conditions. Keep a bucket of water by your target and givem a dunk once in a while as a confidence builder!
