RE: How I hunt the wind
OK guys,
WTF!! When I write something about hunting for big bucks, the best thing you can do is read what I have to say then see if you can apply any or all of it to your own situation. If not, go on to the next thread and try to find something that you can use.
Is it any wonder why we have lost some good people on here, such as Don Higgens?
For all those who choose to pick apart what I have said rather than say something useful......... you may get in line to wait your turn to plant tulips on the Buck Guru's behind! That's Gospel.

Don't let the underlings get to you guru
I thought it was very insightful.....Youhave to keep in mind that some of these guys make Doogie Howser look like Cool Hand Luke.... Take it with a grain of salt.

Greg, guru,
Don't think of it as nit picking your advice, rather think of it as trying to get ever little detail.
You know the old saying, teach them everything they know but not everything you know.

If Don Higgins is above being asked questions......I'm glad he's gone.
LOTS of people learn through being taught.....instead of being told. If someone tells you the sun comes up every morning....rising from the East......you know that. When you ask them "why" it does it that way....and they teach you......you've learned something. When someone asks you.....you can teach them.
I have an analytical mind that needs to know "why" things are so......and not just that they "are". How else can we take things in and apply them to our lives/situations/woods?
As far as I know....this forum isn't a FAQ format.....but rather, interactive.

RE: How I hunt the wind
Here is some real GOSPEL:
GregH smokes on stand AND gets the results he does, which I know many on here, including myself, are a bit jealous of. I think he knows how to hunt the wind. I am not kissing his arse, I am just stating fact.
Here is how I hunt the wind... I have over 25 stand sites on my family's farms and my lease. I have a stand for any wind direction or even if the wind is swirling. Sometimes you can get over/abovea deer's nose. I walk out my door, feel where the wind is coming from, and go to a stand that is set up for that wind direction. Every stand I make is designed for specific wind directions. They have to be no matter what if you want consistent, positive, results.
As far as using scent control products I do not. My reason is simply because I want to try to beat their senses; all of them. I don't want to take one or all away from them. TO ME it is kind of like fighting someone you blindfolded first. I don't doubt that they help, but I don't like the thought of them and don't like people telling me I should try them. I don't want to.
I didn't mean for this post to sound negative or authoratative. I am neither and that is again GOSPEL
