The thing to keep in mind is to try to be aware of the wind at all times. As Ruger said this can be difficult at times. The point is simple....you don't want the wind to be blowing in the direction that you expect to see game. If you expect to see deer directly in front or from the side, make sure that the wind is not blowing your scent in that direction. This usually means keeping the wind in your face as much as possible. The only exception I can think of is during a drive. If you are driving the deer, you would want the wind to be blowing in the direction that you are traveling. That way, the deer in front would pick up the scent of those who are doing the driving....One other thought, this is a very basic part of deer hunting and if you ignore the wind direction or underestimate the deer's ability to smell you, you might as well stay home. Good Luck!!
