Am I Getting Old? Image Stabilized, Cell Trail Cams Too Far?

[Muleys32]

Wondering if I’m just getting old or are these just random personal things that feel too far for me? Do you have other things that are similar?

Image stabilized optics seem a bit too much. Not a big deal if others use them but for me, a perfectly physically able bodied fella, I’d rather be the one putting in the work of glassing through a tool and not a machine. I understand this argument falls flat on all kinds of levels compared to range finders, onx, etc…

I’ve tested them out and they absolutely make a difference while moving around and hand holding. So not putting down the effectiveness of them.

Cellular trail cams? If there was a mandatory week delay that makes a lot of sense. But the real time hunting decisions are too far it feels like. You see it quite consistently in hunting videos.

Just curious on if I’m the only one? I’m guessing the cell cams might get some support. Image stabilized optics being too far a lot less?

Again, I understand the reverse argument can easily be made about other technology I use, just curious if anyone else has a similar thought on these items?

Absolutely not out of line to think it’s gone too far , with all of the anti hunting agenda being pushed hard at us we are dang sure not helping our case by utilizing technology that I. Their eyes makes us look unethical . All of us understand the science behind game management but they have said it themselves that they are operating on emotion/ public perception rather than science and science is the only argument we have until we start regulating ourselves before they do it for us !
