I have a 200I, regular Garmin, and my phone. Recently I've been putting very specific points on wallows and tracks with my dogs only to later find them on OnX on the complete other side of the draw. I also just got premium on my 200i InReach and noticed it's 20 degrees off on the weather...
Mine just updated without asking and I lost all the content I already paid for. He definitely deserves money for his info but it’s total bullshit to screw people out of the content they already paid for.
IDFG has said I can use both NV and thermal as long as I’m not shooting with it, which I’m not. If things aren’t looking good I can get a general idea that “hey, there’s some type of four legged animal way the hell over there. Game is around.”
The only sign I’m seeing looks weeks old.
How...
Year 3 week 3 and still failing. I’m hunting a mountain range in my unit (new unit this year) and outside of one drainage where I had one bull respond I haven’t seen anything.
I’ve been bugling at night, listening, and even popped out the thermal scanner to look from ridges. Nothing.
I have...
I returned the ones I got, ended up getting mountain guides in his size and a half smaller. I only wore them around the house for one day then went straight to pounding out miles in the mountains. Had no issues with a break in period at all. Really surprised considering how stiff they seemed...
Came here to find out why I suck at elk hunting, and left learning why I also suck at turkey hunting.
I gave him 48 hours and I’m about to head back out to him. Watched a long seminar from Paul. Going to try this slow play sequence. Sounds like he was definitely not in a fighting mood and was...
So when you’re trying to close the gap you don’t worry about stepping on branches and making noise?
Them being quiet is what worries me. Not knowing how fast they are running in and if they are going to see me before I stop.
That sounds like a lot more fun than waiting and hoping I guess
I went back in that evening. He would not respond, was on a different part of the drainage, and eventually busted me.
What kind of movement are you guys making towards them? Full on run not caring about noise at all, or somewhat quiet stalkimg?
I’d never even heard of that guy until a few days ago when I met someone who said he was hunting with this Cory guy very close to my camp when he just killed a six point bull last week. He knew which wall tent I was… Whether that’s true or not I have no idea but I guess I’ll stay nearby.
ETA...
3 years of bustin my ass and im almost at step 3 of 10 haha…. Logged over 100 miles on my gps through mountainous terrain last year before I stopped keeping track. This is brutal.
I wish I had that luxury. I’m lucky to even get one to play that much. They’re also on the side of a brushy hill looking down so sneaking in to 100 would be pretty difficult
