    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    The original idea is that the owners and hunters that are sponsored by these platforms have a "hint" of where to start based on user trends. Then the idea of live updates was intriguing to me. But to think that they Do have the ability. It's beneficial to them for their other uses. YouTube views...

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    True on the phone service component. But I believe you're underestimating the ability to sort data in a rapid way with phones and computers. IF someone was savy and could apply filters to data in meaningful ways the search for points is remarkably easy and narrow.

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    So I think I'm more interested in the real time data. Let's say I'm hunting unit xx in state xx. The unit is big. I've done my research and I've found my 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice areas and not found elk or deer. If I have access to data from users in the field then I can change my...

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    I kinda look at it like those air traffic control live maps. If the IT guys see the updates of where people are and what they are tagging/marking ECT. They have a distinct advantage. But agree that this is extremely low on the discussion of internet privacy.

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    That's a great perspective. I think the new clusters are interesting and possibly a way to zig when everyone is zagging. I'm not concerned with OnX or whatever stealing my waypoints. Take em' for all I care. It's just the whole process and the idea that of how it could be very beneficial for...

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    Totally agree that nothing replaces hard work. But if your "homework" is done for you AND IF there is an ability to get live updates from the current hunters in the field it's hard to imagine that if there is a group that has this option to access this data that "work smarter not harder" could...

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    Exactly. So does being "sponsored" by these platforms give you the data?

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    It's not that there is paranoia about technology. Yes agreed that these large social media platforms can see whatever whenever. I'm just bringing up the point that the owners and sponsored people of these platforms have the ability to see an extraordinary about of data that could be used for...

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    For them it's a self fulfilling prophecy. Promote the use of their platform. Get more waypoints. Get more animals. The realtime hunting strategy is very interesting to me. Let's say I work for these companies. I'm elk hunting and don't see anything at my 1st and 2nd choices. I'm friends with...

    Prove me wrong: Map data collection

    As I was hunting this year, alone with my thoughts and began thinking about how these YouTube/ Outdoors channels/ GOHUNT, ONX videos show their hunter passing on animals that most people are happy just to see. Then I think about all the data that I have uploaded to OnX and my waypoints. Then I...

    Nosler Rifles

    I picked up a 28Nosler M48 that was built for their Gun Shows and never brought to the field. Great gun.
