Anyone using this software? I picked it in the bargain cave at Cabelas for 8$. After manipulating my way through the program last night, I really likewhatI can do with it in regards to storing scouting and hunting data, pix, trail cams, shed finds, kills etc. Seems like a great tool for organizing and mapping out any hunting area. I can download satellite images of my hunting areas and plug in all the data while overlaying a topo map etc...
Just wondering if anyone else is using it, Likes or Dislikes?
Gary, I was thinking of that the other day when I was out there, I was wondering which guy was your bud! I will do that... next time I head out there, I think I will be taking my cousin there Friday evening after our hunts.. Hope Matt is working.
Keep us posted on how it suits you. I have heard (good things mostly) of if but not had any direct experiance with it. I would like to take a look at it some timeso I can improve my own database accordingly
I've contemplating getting a copy of it to use, but just never felt that it would be all that beneficial for me. I hop around and hunt a new piece of property almost every year, and then only for a few weeks (weekends) and my trail cameras are put out sporadically in random locations. I think the data may help for overall movement and activity trends of wildlife (which most of us already know), but in my limited case not really for helping me figure out any particular piece of hunting ground. I just wouldn't be collecting enough data.
Looks like a great product, but only for certain applications.

For trail cam inages, I just log them in folders by date, location, weather, and time.
For TOPO maps, I print out the screen from an arial website, then I just write on it. I would like to be able to do that on my computer and log stand locations, changes, deer trails and so on, just dont know how.
Wow, that is high tech scouting right there! With the relatively small plots that I have to hunt, my brain can hold the information. Boy, what a tool that must be out there with the wide expanses though.
Looking at it from a broader perspective... Isn't it amazing that a software package has even been developed for hunting? I really don't know if I find it awesome or kind of sad.
