[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 137896, member: 8"] A couple of thoughts on the farmers field range. You can use strips of plastic garbage bag or plastic crime scene tape tied to bushes and trees. They are not great for speed predictions but give you an idea of diirction. Secondly, depending on the situation, wind becomes very local and will funnel down a tree lined field, or a stream valley and suddenly break right or left and go through a cut in the trees. Finally, I would say that if you buy a wind meter you should try to guess what the wind speed is before using the wind meter each time and after a while you can guess the wind speed fairly accurately without the meter. Very handy skill to have. [/QUOTE]
