    OnX maps from a new hunters perspective

    I'm sure that I am not the first person to get attacked by the hunting bug, which leads me to believe that I am not alone in saying I've been bitten by the onX bug!! Being a new hunter I've been "rifling" through as much material on hunting as I can (pun intended), especially turkeys.o_O Now, I...

    Turkey Hunting Basics

    Great I bought the right thing then, ordered that starter kit a couple days ago. Really want to put some serious time into learning a diaphragm call. I listen to the Jay Scott Outdoors podcast in which he has great callers like Joe Slaton and listening to the changes in pitch and sound he's able...

    Turkey Hunting Basics

    Great, great, great reading for someone in my position. Any chance you have posted a thread on gear. Specifically what kinds of calls you prefer to have with you on you on your hunts.

    Scouting... to soon or to late

    Hadn't thought about bringing a camera, great advice I can bring my dslr . Would taking pictures of certain typography ( saddles , pastures , clearings) be a good picture to take in conjunction with mapping points? Kind of paint a picture on a map.

    Scouting... to soon or to late

    Today's questions: Is there a time (pre or post) hunting season, that scouting new areas or existing areas is basically not useful. Or is it best to scout year round if possible. I do a LOT of hiking in the Angeles forest and Azusa canyons. Both of which I plan on hunting in soon. So I'm just...

    New to hunting, not the outdoors

    Thanks Steve great info, in regards to the Onx maps on phone do you carry a wifi router or solar charging panel with you on longer hunts? I have read a lot of hunters like to use google maps while on the hunt, as well as normal ground maps.
