I text & check game scores on the internet. I sometimes read hunting articles online, too. I've texted with deer within 45 yards and they had no idea I was there.

I use mine!!! I text my friends who are in the woods too, see what they got going on, sometimes it might be a friend sitting near by who can give me a heads up by texting me or vice versa. I take pictures with it, took one last night. Check out college game day. It actually helps me keep still.

I text a lot while in the stand. I've even done it with deer right under me and they didn't notice I was even there. I've taken pictures and even video of them.

I carry the phone for emergency use only but one night I was mad that I had seen so many deer and they wouldnt come in bow range. It was getting dark so i checked my messages and here comes this nice 8pt and stops 10yds from my stand and i have my phone pressed to my ear. do to that I will never touch my phone while in the woods again

Me and my dad text back and fourth about what we are seeing. Be careful, the vibration mode will spook deer. I have not had problems with pressing buttons.
