They have a free online seminar on both programs. Prime Pro has a discount code, I believe, November50 maybe.
Watching the webinar found with Google search should intro you to the program.
Remember the good ol' days when their products shipped free?
One bad customer service issue did not a trend make.
That said, like many other businesses, those who excel at costumer service tend to get my dollars faster than the others.
For those here who enjoy chasing mature western mountain whitetails, have you noticed any certain type of terrain features they tend to use over others?
Saddles/low spots between higher spots, bedded on points, south slopes when cold, are all pretty standard.
What are secondary features or...
It is true they are not as odorous. However, they are still present, still contain some odor, and are urinated over to mark scrapes. Hence the reason I personally remove them from bucks and does. It's simple, keeps meat cleaner, and reduces one more contamination point.
I'll concede...
I just cut them off with a small pocket knife then break out my processing knife. Grab high above it to start the cut then give em a toss. Easy peasy.
But then, I always have a small pocket knife for miscellaneous stuff and a hunting knife.
NW MT, similar terrain to N ID. Also used rattling in the mid-west. While it can work, for me it is hit or miss and those that respond are smaller/ younger age class deer, rarely more than a 2.5 year old and far more 1.5s creeping in.
I've had better results (and find it more convenient) to...
Oh. My-Lanta!
And I thought middle school drama was overly dramatic!
Selective moral outrage is, apparently, the new battlecry of modern civilization.
Use OnX, or don't. Personally, I've found value in the product and even more so in the last year.
I have a big enough job trying to...
Life's too short to hold a grudge or be whizzed off, leaving me two choices. Find where the others aren't or go home and not complain about my choices.

I too live and hunt in NW MT. Spent over 20 years trying to figure out elk as a former mid-west deer hunter. Pony Soldier is right, ALWAYS be scouting new spots.
Elk are highly variable. I suspect it is due to feed in heavily forested country. They are less variable, for instance, with...
I fully confess I know little of that which you speak, but I'm wondering if some of the larger 24 hr chemical body warmers would be helpful? Possibly cost prohibitive depending on duration, I suppose.

I certainly see your point and confess times I understand your sentiment. But, serious question, when those same entities are part of society and the issues at hand, how does refusal to communicate and unwillingness to find common ground allow for solutions? Maybe, solutions can't be had...
I've met snobs and standouts of every socioeconomic class and it existed well before the internet. The internet has simply given us a further reach in society than we once readily had. But people are stil people. The internet hasn't changed that.
Edit to add, perhaps what the internet has...
Old yard sale copies of Outdoor Life and other hunting magazines of the 60s & 70s. They were ancient by the time this young un bought them super cheap, stacks for a quarter, in the 80s. Elmer Keith and Jack O'Connor chief among them.
Of the two, O'Connor brought things to life better for...
3 eggs & spinach, form varies with the day, steel cut oats cold, with greek yogurt and blueberries, a WA Superman, and coffee. Mid- morning more spinach, piece of fruit, protein drink, and usually a little tuna or chicken.
That's what worked for us. The ROI for me is a little better quality of sleep knowing that if I have an income issue, I've got basically s 30- day headstart/buffer between now and the need for a solution.
It also gives breathing room for my wife to contend with immediate issues if...
