    How many of you keep hunting journals and what do you use? A note pad, iPhone, computer?

    I use an Excel Spreadsheet I made. This is my 5th year using it. It's really nice for remembering specific hunts and pulling data.

    I was thinking about starting something like this the other day. Fitz, what information does your spreadsheet include?

    It can be a pain to enter everything into excel, but I love that I can pull stats from it :tu:
