    Question for you guys having winds today between 16-25 mph Deer movement has slowed drastically last couple of days is it worth sitting in these winds today or waiting till this passes and the winds are back to 6-8mph tomorrow

    I will say here in SW ohio, sure seems like the lockdown is on. Movement went from being CRAZY last Friday to seeing 1/3 of the movement Tuesday. Hoping this weekend will be better.

    I feel like 10-20 mph wind can be good. Above that, things can slow down.

    Your chances are better if you're hunting

    5 doe came from the SE, directly down wind - wasn't expecting that. All within 20 yards. 1 had nose up, stand makes small creek, 4 deer run north and 1 runs east and circles to them.

    15 minutes later, 7 does come from the north. No bucks.

    Just heard big branch snap.
