You can't kill them if you don't go. It has been my experience the people that kill the most deer is the people that hunt the most. Just keep the wind in your face and don't worry about which direction it is blowing
If you're gonna be stupid you better be tough.

I wish it were simple enough to just keep the wind in your face. But it seems like most days it blows from every direction possible in the hills where I hunt.

I hate east winds but they don't slow me down a bit. Everyone around here always ask how I kill so many deer. It's simple, I'm always in the woods. My success rate ain't near as high as what most people think.

I like an east wind. I've got one property that I hunt that I can only access from the west. Lots of good deer on that place. Think that's where I'll go in the morning.

I swear it's been SE 90% of the times I've been this year, which is the worst possible for some areas I want to try out.
If you want to always win, never play anyone better than you!

I use to set up most of my stands for a north est wind because that was the predominant wind direction. The last couple of years it does seem that there has been a change to a lot of east/south winds. It must be the global warming.

My problem with the East wind is that most of my stands are for a south, west, or north wind. Therefore an East wind just limits my stand selection. I have not seen it be any worse than the other winds, just not as prevalent. This year though, there have been lots of days from the East.

Wind out of the West - hunt your best. Wind out of the East - hunt your least. The truth is the hunter that is in the woods the most - kills the most.

get out of the permanent stands and same stand locations and just set up on them from a different direction, where you have the wind in your face. Great time to sit on the ground brushed in and bushwack em from where they least expect you to be, while they are standing there staring at the shooting house or stand you are usually in
