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.


Ok, so I'm not crazy.

Hmmmm, everything looks the same for me right now on SL. But yes, it is prompting me that there is an update. Should I do it?! Just like you guys, I have hundreds of locations saved on SL and would be super upset if I lost them!

Uh, if you find me in one of your stands, it's just... Um, ah... Coincidence. :whistle:

Yes, everything is normal on ScoutLook for me.... I probably just didn’t do the update on it yet?

Been messing around with Huntstand a bit and I’m actually starting to like some of the new features. It’s a little more busy than I like but should work just fine. Time will tell. I will say I like the aerial resolution and map options much better than OnX.

I've honestly never seen the need for OnX after using Huntstand....does everything I need it to do. One thing I noticed yesterday while using HS though was my location marker was not accurate a couple times....like several hundred yards off. But from what I could tell my cell signal was really weak.....might have had something to do with it. Never had that happen before.

Funny, I felt the same about OnX vs Huntstand... but in reverse. :lol:

With the added private/public boundaries nationwide Huntstand does have an edge on OnX in that regard. Sucks I just renewed but good thing is I got the 20% discount applied.

Anybody know if there is a way to export OnX waypoints to Huntstand? If I could do that it would be awesome.

Now an export/import would be a reason for me to explore Huntstand. Without it, there’s no way I’m even going to entertain leaving OnX.

But I don’t understand the private/ public boundary comment. I get that in OnX, well maybe only in WI as that’s the state I bought.

Huntstand is FREE and has NATIONWIDE coverage of public/private and list landowners just like the paid version of OnX.

No idea how accurate the boundaries are but the stuff I checked that I’m familiar with it right on.
