Banning Hunting Tech in Idaho

[nubraskan]

I know a guy with a therm who agrees with you and supports this restriction during hunting season. His experience says "they're too effective"

Couldn't agree more for deer / elk and the like. I have a thermal scope that I use for coyotes / racoons, on a night with ideal conditions I have actually walked right up to a feeding deer on a moonless night and I was debating if I was going to touch it or not just to say that I did. It finally figured it out when I was <6 feet away

80% of how our 8yo gets to share the outdoors with us is through trail cams and scouting. It's safe for him to tag along in August from a weather standpoint, and there's nobody out for his singing or buffonary to annoy. The past two seasons we have left cameras out all fall into the spring and it has been fun to see what we capture.

It's also shocking that we have only captured 2 other hunters but lots of animals.

Thermals for recovering game.jist like tracking dogs I can get behind.

Using a cell cam in season to help your hunt I cannot support, but don't have a problem with non-cellular.

I'd LOVELOVELOVE to get a drone above my dog when we are hunting birds to record our hunts, but not use at that moment. It would be fun to replay it and see how roosters run.

I'd also be down for an open sights centerfire and traditional bow season here in Colorado.

Everyone has there limit,
garmins new range finder and its capabilities is to far for me.
OnX is awesome but some of the features is borderline.
All the people complaining about all the hunter in the woods and all this contributes.
If maps,compasses,no side by sides had to be fallowed that would eliminate a bunch of people right there.
No way drones should be used.
I don’t even think they should for downed game.
Work for it
