After thousands of years of improving man's first survival skill, a new method to improve the hunt has hit the market. Hunters are going high-tech with a new program designed to improve their hunting skills by gathering, detailing, and retaining performance information about bagged game over entire seasons or years.
An interesting new application tracks the information related to the hunt and bagged game, (example: elk, deer, waterfowl, etc), and includes an extensive wildlife database, GPS location data, weather, moon phases, and hunt photos that get logged on the iPhone.
The app can then share data through email or Facebook if the hunter chooses. The application, called the Hunter's iJournal, is available for Apple's iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch portable devices through the app store.
The program doesn't stop there. "Our unique program allows the hunter to track data that can be used to improve their skill and knowledge over time, giving the hunter information to make adjustments based on factual data, and not just relying on their memories," says inventor and owner/partner, David Borges.
"The system allows you to graph hunt results and is an advance in studying how, when, and where you perform your best."
"Information related to the hunting experience are what hunters enjoy recalling well after the hunt, even years later. Now, hunters can keep accurate records from the field by using their mobile devices. They can even record data for their kids since the system allows for multiple profiles," says Borges.
