Title: Public Land Trad Hunt Vid
Post by: waiting4fall on October 13, 2011, 05:12:00 AM
This was a public land hunt, I had lastnight.  I tried to include some knowledge, that may benefit any new hunters who see this. I want you to let me know how you feel about this vid. Thanks.- Dave.

You wanted feed back....you got it......well done!   :thumbsup:   I am amazed at the number of people who never look at a map or know how to read one. I have done what you showed for years in the North woods and it has saved me many hours of scouting. Thanks!

Cool video, I learned a bit from watching it.  I've used maps frequently but I know I'm not using them to their full potential like I should.

I like the features on the map software/app you were using.

Nice job and thanks!  I've never used maps as I've always hunted fairly small pieces of land that were easy to figure out but there are thousands of acres of big woods public lands here that maybe I can figure out and hunt by learning to use maps.

I agree with everyone on the neat learning tool you put together.

Viewing at work (shhh!) I couldn't get the volume I wanted and couldn't make out anything you shared from the tree whispering.

You are one tough hombre to be packin that stand in and then share "it's not easy walk getting there..."  :)

Older I get, the more I like hunting the ground.

I too have never really had good fortune trying to read maps w/out feet on the ground!  Seems the features get altered so much back East here on even public land, and the maps aren't updated that often... Up where I do hunt, the satellite views don't resolve down enough to get good input.  That, or I'm just too dumb to use Google Earth right!  :)

Thanks. Looking toward next installment. Neat vid of the computer! That was very cool!

That was real good. Better then much of the sponsored stuff on TV. Man, you should be on TV. Cool, like the info.

That was a great video. I really liked the terrain feature. That was more eye opening for me.

That is great.
I am not a user of maps, so that was a good tutorial for me.
Thanks.

Excellent! Thanks for taking the time to share that with us. You're right, the videos of shots on Deer are great, but this type of informative video is different and an awesome learning tool. I hope you'll continue to post them.    :thumbsup:

Wow,  Great tutorial.  As a new bowhunter I have struggled with what to look for as far as terrain goes.  This was a real gift.

How did you get the topo map in that scale? The contours of the land look 3 dimensional and just jump out at you. When I look at the top map of my hunting area it doesn't look like that.
