I dont know these folks or have any affiliation. Like most on here....I have been in the "L" column, including with a 3yr quest and 7yo buck this past season.
While I have done my best to only buy tags and needed gear, i succumbed to the TrackNTrail bloodtracking app after seeing a magazine ad and still feeling the pain from the loss above. Think it was like $20 and on my iphone 14. This was about 2-3months ago and forgot about it. Middle age random memory brought it into consideration after i had dispatched a porch raiding raccoon this am in some 8" tall grass on the edge of the yard. It was daylight, i turned the app on and zoomed n from 20-30ft away. The screen was covered in these "animated" little red circles but in the center was solid red and where the vermin laid. I was blown away. Highly recommended and driving ethical hunting all the further. Shocked how good it works and plan to test it with any more opps i can come up with including some dated blood with a roadkill or the likes.
