Bayou,

Most people go in the woods to enjoy the woods, relax and listen for deer and not sounds of humans. But everyone does it their own way. If you enjoy going out and listening to music and looking around, so be it.

I've gotten bored and needed to take a break from intently listening for deer. I've played games on my cellphone. I thought about loading some videos on my Nano for season but the games are likely what I'll do. No noise and a distraction when I get tired.

Bottom line...do what makes you happy. But if your worried about the Nano just make sure you keep track of it. They are a bit expesive.
