When I started hunting, I remember relying on old-school paper maps.

I also remember when a variety of companies started launching their hunting map apps for iPhones and androids.

What Is Scout To Hunt?

Scout To Hunt (STH) is a western state mapping app.

As a western hunter, this covers all the states and units that I hunt every year.

Its a mapping app built by hunters, for hunters.

My favorite part is that its free!

Scout To Hunt promises that the essential map features will be forever free.

This includes downloadable offline mapping for when youre out of service, which is common for us outdoorsmen!

Why Do You Need It?

Besides hunting and fishing, a mapping app can be used as an essential survival tool.

I use my Scout To Hunt app most for hunting, shed hunting and fishing.

When hunting, Ill set and mark trail cameras on public land.

For shed hunting, I spend hours on the app looking for ideal winter range conditions for elk.

Ill move through the app and mark lakes and streams that I feel hold potential for big fish.
