Sure, I understand.The crossbow and traditional guys as well as compound folks all have different opinions. I want to record my hunt- the phone can be turned to "airplane" mode to turn off the ringer. Essentially it is a video cam\camera.
You might not want to record your hunt but there are thousands that do.
I also carry my phone with me in the event of an emergency- it works well for that and I highly recommend it.
You can also use trail marking,gps,check the weather,video conference your shot in real time to anyone who has a smartphone or a computer.
My phone is the most important tool for me in the woods- only second to my bow.
