Part 2: HF's Very Own Data & Research in a Map

Written by Paul Damron | Apr 2, 2021 6:00:00 AM
Maps have fundamentally changed the way people research and scout for hunts. One of the main reasons Huntin’ Fool decided to provide its members with a 3D mapping application was to publish our very own species data.
As most of you know, Huntin’ Fool has proven that we have some of the best data in the industry when it comes to hunting. Our members are a great resource, along with our Hunt Advisors. Collectively, the Hunt Advisors spend countless hours putting all of the data together to publish it in our monthly magazine. Being able to access this data in a map format is huge. Not only does our map give you 3D, Waypoint Management, and Customizable Layers, but it also allows you to filter our hunt data.

Last month, I provided a brief overview of the Hunt Filters, but it's simple. You set up the filters you are looking for, click submit, and just like that, icons on the map appear that match your filter. This month, I wanted to share with you what information you can expect after filtering. We wanted to make sure that we brought the data together that would fit everyone's data needs.
