i'm with ya, its been so windy the last two days a guy would almost have to turn around in his stand and hang on to the tree for deer life. Hopefully as this front passes thru the wind will die down with any luck by Friday but its not looking to promising

Hunted this evening and saw one doe. The wind is high here as well but I couldn't stay out of the woods since bow season is coming to an end here in Texas.

I have only taken a couple of bucks while hunting in high winds. Hunting deer in strong winds appears to be much harder on the hunter than the deer. I have gotten busted by deer in hunting high winds than any other circumstance I can recall. Busted a least twice after scouring the area for any close deer before relieving myself. I guess I should have looked down next to the tree.
Once continued to hunt while high winds progressively got stronger and stronger. My partner, the smart one, had gone to the truck 30 minutes earlier. I found I could not get down and ended up taking a spare safety strap to tie me to the tree as I road it out. The storm ended up being a tornado which past quite close. I am thankful that the tree I was in was a monster white oak.

Not me, but I did spend an hour reassembling the 10X20 shelter I have up in the back yard. (It's my rain/shade shelter while I finish up the new "shed".)

I woke up this morning and looked out, and it was (and still is) snowing sideways. Coffee tastes really good right now; I may give it a go for an evening hunt.

I'm none too sneaky, so I like the wind to cover all the noise I make. If I hadn't filled my tag last Saturday (first deer w/ a bow!) I'd be hunting.

Yeah it was friggin crazy today. I thought I was going to get crushed by a falling log at any moment.
On the other hand...it was perfect for stalking in the AM.
