What did we do before phone and GPS's? Technology today is amazing. It definitely has it's place. However I think it has become a crutch for some of the newer generation of today's hunters . It sounds like some people need to brush up on there woodsmanship skills. For years, I have entered and exited my trees without a head lamp. To this day, I could take you to trees I used to hunt on properties that I hunted 20-30 yrs ago. On the property that I currently hunt, we have 26 trees pre-set. None are "pinned" on my phone. One is a mile 1/2 from the truck. We walk right to all of them without the aid of a phone or a light. It's fairly easy to do. Your eyes have to acclimate to the dark. Then You just have to have recognizable landmarks to navigate throught the woods. A former hunting partner couldn't believe that I could take him right to his tree without ever turning on the light. With that being said, my eyes aren't what they were 20 years ago and I find myself using using a light more and more especially in tricky footing areas. I will say though that being able to give a "pin" to a new guest on my property would be pretty handy. They could walk right to "their" tree without me taking them to it. Also GPS is VERY handy in navigating the mountains while hunting elk. I use one all the time in the mountains now. However , for years we just navigated with a compass and common sense.
