Huntstand looks like it has some nice features but seems way too busy for me. Sometimes those extras are just a pain and just complicate something that should just be real easy.



Exactly.. I just need to mark spots... Dots could even be smaller.

They sent me a link in my email...That won't open either. Maybe they will get the bugs worked out in the next few days. I'll contact them tomorrow. Email had a contact listed for support.

Seems every “upgrade” I have these days be it phone, internet, satellite tv, certain apps.......all turn into big problems. Should call them what they really are.....downgrades instead.

Don’t these people test this crap before rolling it out. :?

I saw the headline on this and knew it wouldn’t be good. Just lost all my saved points. Hundreds of them. Nice transition to your new system. What a peach. I was moving towards on x but still used the scent cone. Just canceled the plan that I had with them. I can’t support stupidity.

I was wondering if maybe you guys didn't sync....and you need to sync in order to view any new waypoints on your computer. I actually gave up on Scoutlook when their update left me hanging during my November vacation a year or two ago. Downloaded Huntstand right away and have had great luck with it ever since. And HS does have the "wind cone".....forgot what it's called, but it is there. And from what I remember SL did not have a bedded buck icon....perfect for us Beasts.

I synced multiple times. They must have did something on their end because suddenly it worked.

Yeah, maybe. I thought that's what I needed to do earlier today when it wasn't loading but it wasn't showing on my list. May have just been missing it somehow. I swear I looked like 50 times...lol
