I’m not gonna lose any sleep over his comment. I was very happy to get that buck. Tracked him to his bed and shot him after 4 hard days of hunting.

Would have been a good one next year.

Yah but how much meat did you lose? It's sketchy out there. You must've had batteries in your headlamp.

FWIW, to find the spot where it was shot.

1) drop an onx waypoint at your current location.
2) click on it, and scroll down. There is a “waypoint radius” tab. Click on that and set the radius to the distance you shot the critter. The place it was shot will be along the outside edge of the circle.

Now use you compass feature to draw a line to where it was standing. Where the line crosses your circle is where to start looking.

Lol this is great.

Someone should post a how-to on MM... clear they might benefit

@Greenhorn should. He's already commented on the thread!

They had enough battery power to film and I'm going to go out on a limb and say every cell phone in their procession had a light on it. They were looking for excuses.

Correct, and anyone that's ever owned a headlamp and used one knows 2 things:

1. Carry spare batteries
2. Carry a spare (or 2) headlamps

but typically because they didn't once and regretted it. I'm dumb, I actually did it twice.

I bet if those guys were even 100 miles from a known grizzly bear they would've gone back to the car even if they each had three headlamps.

I’ve never had to use it but it seems pretty straightforward. Nice tool. Seems like you could get within 50 yards and with 14 guys someone should trip over it.

Agree, or you could go all old school and shoot an azimuth on a hand held silva and again, one of the 14 guys following the dude with his compass should trip over it.

Come on, none of those guys know how to use a compass...

just send it, forget a back stop or knowing whats beyond your target...

Gotta love the way they title these videos to really grab your attention.

These are the people packing rifles in the woods in the fall.

Surprised you guys haven't picked up on this gem, maybe I missed it.

Again, not an ounce of meat. Vintage muley freak! (EDIT: They did get 1/3 of a backstrap )

If Matt Rinella reads this thread and watches these videos, he is going to have a seizure.

Reminds me of the time I killed an elk 3pm in archery a couple miles from the truck. Close to the park with plenty of griz around. Got it all quartered and hung, loaded the first quarter to find out the headlamp was dead. Spooky pack out, cell phone lights suck. Now I carry 2 high lumen headlamps with a battery backup. Probably zigzaged 3x the needed distance bushwhacking through a hell hole with my hand on the bear spray the whole time. "It was treacherous out there."

Wonder if they'll have a show and tell day of what not to do at hunters safety course I'm doing next week with my kids.
