Good hunt. If I have a chance to hunt, I hunt. I don't let the wind stop me. But when I see an east wind, no matter what I'm doing, I just don't feel as confident.  I've hunted hounds and curs, and my experience is, it's harder for a dog to move a track with higher BP and dry conditions. Seems like that's when we may bay real early and bay real late.

I'm the same way, I don't let it dictate my hunting but it's something I do look into on every hunt, the lower that BP is it seems that the scent holds better and doesn't evaporate as quick, the dogs can push a track alot better and there seems to be a bigger scent funnel for them to drift the track in, when the humidity is higher than normal scent molecules linger in the air longer as well...
