We hunt swirling wind in the Rockies all the time. That's where a good sent killer and cover scent will increase you chances dramatically.

If you hunt upwind of deer, you're asking for trouble. Yes, I always pull my hair out, as you say, when hunting the wind.
Hunting upwind and shooting deer is all luck and not very smart.
