I’ve kind of gone the other way. I started out with the newer tech as a teenager. I was doing ok for a few years as far as getting deer but the more I read about past hunters and cullers and the more I learned about our hunting history I sort of wanted to see if I would “make the grade” if I had all the old gear and did it a bit harder.
Ive done a few “old school” trips now. I’ve found them to be a really good way to reset the thinking and they’ve been some of the most enjoyable hunting trips I’ve ever had.
Theres still a place for new tech in my book but we all have our own line in the sand for what tech we’d use and the way we like to hunt. Every time I take the 303 and a frame pack and consign my cooking to a campfire, I gain more than I lose.
