I agree, fighting the wind is a tough one when deer hunting. I had a great spot this year, but anytime deer came in from my right I got busted about 30 yards off. And that was through some real thick stuff, no way they saw me. But when they came from my left or in front, they never knew I was there.

Also, to be noted that in that particular spot, it didn't matter which direction the wind blew that day. Because is of the air flow from that stand, the wind always came from the same spot no matter what. Don't ask me explain it. I bet someone here could though. And yes, I was hunting in hill country in a valley.
