We've all talked about the past (Baker Stands, Bear Whitetail II bows), but I'm wondering what you think the future will be in hunting. I see the day where we will have the ability to take a device the size of an IPOD into the woods and be able to moniter 20 cameras in real time. We would no longer sit in a treestand, but instead try sneak in on the deer or get in front of them for a shot. I'm not saying this is a good or bad thing, but I do think it will be available

I could see people buying that today! Like you I'm not condoning it but as teched out as people get I can see it in all the cabelas magazines! The Econo Model RTM (Real Time Monitor)with 2 live feeds with a half mile range, Trophy Class RTM will monitor 8 live feeds with a 1 mile range, and the Pro-Staffer Model 16 live feeds with a 2 mile range.
I see it moving to more of a population control mgmt as opposed to sport/trophy mgmt. In the time I've been hunting deer we have been from lotto type doe tags where you had to be drawn for one to shoot an antlerless to now being able to kill over 400 deer legally in one year all in 15 to 20 years.

Well we have already seen where you can hunt deer via remote and a mouse on your home PC.......... Just another way to allow "real hunters" more opportunites................................ NOT!
Hunting SHOULD require some effort on the part of the hunter...... But I am sure I am wrong......

Probably a long distance antler measurer so you don't "waste" your tag on a buck that isn't worthy of your self proclaimed "trophy Hunter" status.  I'm being a smart ***, but it really wouldn't surprise me. |

That's well on the way to what I was talking about.

Wow! It comes with a Rack Bracket and everything! Where do I order ;D ;D... I have never came close to needing one of these. It's either a shooter or not a shooter. My heart will tell me in about .1 seconds. |
