    Hunted here on Long Island Sunday morning. Winds had to be up around 30 mph, lasted 2 hours before I climbed down! Didnt see a squirrel.

    Seen a nice buck chasing a group of does around the open field 4:00 in the afternoon Friday with 25-40 mph winds.

    From my experiences deer movement is minimal when the wind is whipping.
