You don’t even have to be as old as me to utter the phrase, “How did we ever live without (fill-in-the-blank)?” Some of the blank fillers in my lifetime are microwave ovens, fax machines, anti-lock brakes (on cars where the brakes actually work), cell phones, DVDs, MP3s, Iphones, Blackberries, and on and on and on.
Sometimes in hunting we find refuge from the ceaseless barrage of technology, but less and less often. Think about it. Laser rangefinders, string releases, GPS, pelletized black powder, etc., etc. Hunting’s list of how-did-we-live-without technological advances is really no less endless!
There is one technological advance that is truly a boon to hunting any way you look at it. It unquestionably makes it easier to be a law biding hunter and actually creates hunting opportunity by making preparation for a hunt much, much more convenient. It’s acquiring your hunting license via the internet!
