Default RE: Learned another Lesson TONIGHT!!

I feel your pain! [:@]

After hunting on the ground for a week and a half, I decided it was time to put up a stand (I hate heights) in a really nice tree overlooking the two main paths on my property. One coming from the creek, one from the neighbors woods. I checked the wind after a morning ground hunt and found that the stand location seemed to be safe...

Well -- after putting up the stand, the wind has been wrong every time!!@ [:@][:@][:'(]

Furthermore, I'm in a valley, and the wind tends to swirl making it even more difficult to find a height of the stand that doesn't put me right in the down draft [:'(]

Oh well. That's why it's hunting!
