My cell phone is with me at all times, including when hunting. I paid $49.00 for a vibrating battery for this year. Works good. when I get bored at work, I put my phone in my pocket and call myself.

After my incident I had in the woods last year (I wont go into details now) I went the following day and got a cell phone. I will be taking it with me from now on.

I never used to take mine with me, I wanted to be left alone. But one night I came home and the lights were off and my pregnant wife and 1st daughter were gone. There was a note on the door that she went into labor and my mother had to take her to the hospital. I started to run a round like a nut trying to clean myself up and get to the hospital, when my wife comes out of the closet and bets me that I'll never leave the phone again. I take it now.

I had a friend call me just last night asking where he was . He had taken the wrong road and wasn't sure of how to get out without retracing all the roads he had been over . He had taken a wrong turn getting out of a new hunting spot .He was almost out and the phone saved him a lot of driving .

Take mine but I leave it off for that &quot;just in case&quot;times.902 you've got a mean little lady there.LOL.Wouldn't want to make her mad.

Hunting is not a sport,it's a lifestyle.

I bring mine too. Leave it off.
This season it will be turned on in vibrate mode since I'm expecting my first kid at the end of October. (nice timing, eh?)

Keep 'em all in the Bull.

I don't carry mine with me, but where we hunt there is no service anyway. I hunt with a group, and we all know about where everyone is anyway, and when they should be back to camp.
