I'm not a big fan of hunting in the high wind.  But, when I do I like to stay on the ground and find some thickets that I would think deer would go to stay out as well.  The pure calm  is just as bad, the deer can hear every movement.  I feel a soft breeze (in your favor of course) is the best hunts for me.

Had a nice mature 6 come in on last Saturday, southeren Ks. 20-40 had myself tied to a tree, good deer just not in the right position to take a shoot. Don't get enough days in the woods the way it is can't waste one on the wind. Besides where else do I get a ready made excuse when I miss.
Bowhunting is a passion, not an obsession. Its just hard for my wife to tell the difference sometimes.

If you skipped to the end - go back and read Terry's post.  If it is windy, get on the ground and into the thick.
