I've hunted MO several times and really like their digital harvest reporting. Here in NY it appears they're going to do the same. Hopefully they'll mimic that of MO...works great.

What is digital harvest reporting?

Tele-poach in mo is a joke its data is very skewed. One good example is 3000 deer taken off of 200ac of public in one county.

Turkeyman

Please educate me. It's my understanding the MO Telecheck system only asks for the county of harvest. How does that equate to a 200 acre plot? Where did you find that many deer taken in such a small area?

Now...as regards to poaching that can occur with any reporting system...to the point where an individual can just not report at all and sneak deer, turkey or whatever in the back door. But that's not what we're discussing here. We're discussing a superior and easier reporting tool.

Digital reporting. You have the app on your phone. You kill. Launch the app and "notch" your tag. No cell signal required but when signal is acquired it will be sent.
If you were questioned you can show the notched tag. When back home or wherever go online and complete.

Now, if you are carrying a bird and a CO asks you for your tag and it's not "notched" you may be in trouble LOL.

Now...everyone doesn't have a cellphone and that's fine. You can still use a paper tag. But that bird better have either a paper tag or a notched via cell.

Tennessee has this check - in app and it works great, even if you don't have service on your phone you can go ahead and fill out the app on your phone and as your phone gets service it will automatically update and send you a confirmation number that you can give your processor or taxidermist.. It will also keep a log for you of all your check-in ...

Public/private is one of the questions along with what type of weapon. That many deer were checked in and people checked them in as they took them off the small parcel of public. The data they receive from the tele-check is skewed and MDC knows it. Here is another example- in cwd counties you are supposed to bring the deer in on opening weekend to be tested. So what happens 80% of deer are tele-checked in on Monday. Like I said its bad data.

I like Tennessee and Kansas because they require a picture of the kill immediately upon being taken. It requires your phone location to be on so they know where it was harvested.

In our state CWD zone you have the option to have it tested or not ...
You know we have people say that it's bad data, but I feel most will use the app and it's good data ... Someone who is going to cheat the system will always cheat the system in my opinion...  The days of us having local checking locations is over unless you can get the people at the Dollar Stores to check the game ...

I like the "tag" being on my phonehere in Oregon. No cell service required. I have all the info on the phone of the validation. Time and location with a conformation number. I prefill out all my info on a ribbon of surveyors tap leaving the date, hunt unit and conformation number blank. I fill those three out with a waterproof pen at the time of the kill and attach it to the leg of the bird. Then I fill out the reporting questions on the fish and game website when I get home and in cell service.
