With the Minnesota and Wisconsin deer hunting seasons right around the corner, here are some apps for your iOS or Android device to help you get prepared and be successful for this year's deer hunt. 

iHunt Journal

This app offers the full hunting journal experience for remembering past hunting experiences or planning for future outings. One of the nice things about this app is that it lets you track all of your pre-hunt observations at your favorite locations, including observed deer rubs and scrapes or deer paths. The app allows you to monitor weather conditions at all of your favorite spots and get sun/moon information and solunar periods.

While you’re hunting, keep track of what you see and make note of your kills including exact location, weather conditions, the type of weapon used, and much more. You can even note things like the weight of your kill, exact location, and photos. The app also allows you to export your harvests or observations to be printed or used beyond your phone.
