MNpurple Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Remember when we sat in a stand to hunt and bought gear to give us the best shot at killing that deer? Well thankfully we can now be comfortable while texting from stand, forget about the deer! Props to whatever company designed this because they're gonna make a fortune with it.

vman11 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Holy h*ll. That's pretty clever.I'm guilty as charged. It's pretty easy to clean up emails, text, play games, etc. when nothing is moving in the woods. This will be on my list during my next stop to the outdoors store.

nbadger23 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 That thing is awesome. As I an writing this, my hands are getting cold and I am hoping that noise I hear in the distance is a big buck :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear55 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Know more than one guy who lost a chance at a big one because he was playing with the phone. Hard not to text but I sure hope that isn't me one of these years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugonian1 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I know I have missed plenty of fish due to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96trigger Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 that is cool, unfortunately most of my stands don't get cell phone reception. I did go to the library and buy 3 used books that will fit in my pocket nicely over the deer season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Picked one of those up last year, paid about $25 if I remember correctly. Saw them earlier this year at me nards for $14.95 I believe.I got mine primarily for those mornings when I'm in the stand well before sunrise. It worked well in the capacity. Definitely don't wanna miss anything on account of being distracted by the phone, but it does help pass some of that idle time for those who would prefer to stay occupied.

SartellMN Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I had a doe sneak up behind me once while playing my phone. My senses dulled as they were focused on the game. Never again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheetah Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 It's a nice idea, but disappointing too. I hope lots of deer survive because of this, more opportunities for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 It's a nice idea, but disappointing too. I hope lots of deer survive because of this, more opportunities for me. Ding ding ding! I had the exact same two responses too, Cheetah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Buck Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 This world is spinning too fast for this old cat, 1/2 the reason I still hunt I'm sure is to try to get away from people and technology lol, but pretty cool and I'm sure my nephews etc will be buying that gizmo.

anamod Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Just picked one up at scheels. Not the warmest muffler but serves a purpose. Thought about having some one with sewing skills put something similar in my Sitka Incinerator Muff. Another must have is a Mophie Juice Pack battery charger to keep battery life for all day sits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABS4ME Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 looked at one for my son... then thought no way. I want his head up as much as possible. I know he is on his phone some, but I know it would be more with this. Plus I want his battery to last all day so I can check in if I need to and he can ask for help when he has one down... Bought him a good thick insulated muff... he can take the phone in and out of that.Good Luck!Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofishfisherman Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm also guilty of playing with my phone while in the stand. Usually I'm texting with my buddies who are in their stands in surrounding areas or in other parts of the state. Its fun getting the play by play of opener around the area.

fr0sty Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I was texting musky buck two years ago when my shooter came in! It was mild temps that day, so no need for the muffler with a view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzie Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 shot both my deer last year as they both approached me 2 different times while I fished on my iphone!!! Too bad I lost that phone and hate games on the new phone...it's gonna be a long sit this year!! haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rippinlip Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Wife and I will be getting a few of these. Wonder if the clear cover takes away some of the light from the phone? Texting an hour before sunrise really lights up the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boXCar JiggY Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Ive been guilty using the phone on stand also, until I shot a bear bear over 300 pounds an didnt have power to call buds to help haul it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
