Remember when maps were on paper? We use to spend
money on paper topo maps and put a thumbtack on that map to
represent a deer sighting, effectively creating heat map with
multiple thumbtacks. Then along came Google and Google
Maps. It was a revolutionary step forward in scouting
technology, but there were some very important pieces missing from
the Google map. For one, we couldn’t instantly in-the field
in real-time tell where the boundary lines of property existed.
Sure, we could spend hours looking at town survey maps, but nothing
was instant. And who the heck owned the property? That
was another game of tracking down slow information points.
These were all the challenges that Eric Siegfried, founder of OnX
Maps had at one time. All of the information was available,
but not instantly on any single device in an organized manner when
you needed it. So, Eric set out to fix all that with his new
company. A decade later, with a subscription and smart phone
or GPS you can instantly have access to all this information.
It’s a game changer for the hunter. You’ll learn more about
the areas that you hunt than you ever thought to ask and it makes
the hunting possibilities endless. We dive deep into all the
bells, whistles, and capabilities that OnX has to offer with Zach
Sandau, Project Co-Ordinator for OnX Hunt. This is part IV of our
series on hunting technology and stay tune for out next episode
when we explore arrow and broad head technology with David Hand CEO
of Ballistic Arrow Tech and Slash Arrows.
