wind

[GOLDTIP]

Have the day off, I know it's suppose to be windy as hell. Anyone have any luck in this crap??? Any thoughts, tips or tricks??

Got any spots in a valley out of the wind? They could be good.

Find a valley out of the wind or possibly still hunt. Leaves will be wet and wind should mask some noise. Just depends if you have an area that suits well for either.

I'm sitting on the ground in a valley brother.

I got a spot at the end of a pine tree ridge. Down in a valley by a creek. That's where I'll be tommorow.

Go duck hunting. You couldn't pay me enough to be in a stand tomorrow. Had a tree fall tonight.

Depending on the amount of ground you have available it would be a fun day for a spot and stalk on a buck/doe combo out in the middle of a cornfield. Otherwise, try to get on the downwind side of a timber.

I wouldn't be out doing that either, if had to go through timber to get where I want to be. There are going to be a lot of trees coming down between tonight and tomorrow. Being out on a boat would be a crazy move also.

I would go ground pound an area that has little to no larger trees and was a bedding area. Or just wait till the wind starts dying down then go jump in a tree.

Never have luck in the wind. Good day to check cameras.

$5 worth of good advice right there. In the low lands on the ground!

I'm out today with a doe tag with no plans on using it. I'm with Bro and nephew just observing. We are tucked in the thick stuff the wind isn't bad at all here. I've hunted lots worse but no deer sighing yet.

I think even the trees might need a lifeline today.

Just got out at noon. Sitting near se cor of big timber. The wind up top seems to be cooking but I'm fine here. 3 die and a forky came through half hr in.

Still hunt standing corn if there is any around you.

Who else is wondering if their ground blind is still in one piece?

I just put one down last week where my #1 is running and wondering if it is still even in the same county at this moment

Didn't put mine out this year, but every year I have, it has required repairs either from deer or cattle rubbing on it or being blown around. Hope everyone had theirs tied down well!

Or do some mid season scouting. Or work!

Work? In the immortal words of Oscar Wilde "Work is the curse of the drinking class"... There are some things about getting old that are hell, but being retired ain't one of them!

Hate to say it but so far this sit has had my best action. Shooter at 30yds just went through no shot and wouldn't turn for grunt/snort wheeze. Had many young ones come through and I'm only 3 hrs in.
