Interesting thread with some good information.
Yeah, deer hunting isn't a video game where better hardware and software ie, more memory, a faster processor or a better set of controls are going to improve your game. A successful hunt means, practicing shooting, learning the land you hunt on, patterning deer before the season starts, building stands and blinds in good locations, even doing the hard work of putting in plots.
Sure there have been a lot of technological advances over the years like better scopes and rifles for less money, better bullets, range finders, trail cams, scent control and the like but all of those advancements and improvements have made only incremental advances in success rates.
A successful hunt means doing the same things as Daniel Boone did when he was a lad in 1750.
If there is any technology that I would invest in it is warm clothing. Being able to stay in the stand longer is still the best way to kill more deer and we have much better hunting clothing than ol Daniel did.
