"The stronger the wind speed, the quicker barometric pressure will rise and after it subsides is the time to be out. After checking more than 100 Pope and Young records of 170+ bucks against weather conditions 8-12 hours before harvest, I found that a tremendous amount were taken after a wind of at least 30 mph had dropped to 10 mph.".
Now, I would really like to know what 'tremendous' equates to, but it is still something to file away.
As a general rule I try and get out before a front rolls through assuming deer will be on their feet and moving. But, what I really like about this article is that is actually throws some time frames out to use as an additional gauge. I also like the concept of clockwise wind changes.
Anyone have thoughts or journal entries that back this information up??
