Reading the ""Bowhunting Time Capsule" thread got me thinking about other gadgets we thought were pretty high tech at the time. When I started bowhunting in the early 90's I not only had one of those manual rangefinders but I was a big fan of Trail Timers. Remember those? Basically a simple digital clock with a string you would stretch across a trail or a fence crossing. The idea was a deer would hit the string and stop the clock so you could pattern it's movement through the area. I had those things all over the place at my lease but I can't honestly say they ever helped me kill a deer. I figured that they would be a thing of the past in this era of cheap trail cameras but I Googled it and they are still for sale!
