Strong Wind Often Not Good at All Contrary to some beliefs, a strong wind is not necessarily a good wind for duck shooting. The experts on waterfowl look at it this way. In a strong wind everything looks a bit out of focus to " the waterfowl. By nature, the waterfowl are suspicious creatures and they are afraid of unnatural movements.
