onX: Arizona Hunting Map for Garmin GPS - Hunt Chip with Public & Private Land Ownership - Hunting Units - Includes Premium Membership for onX Hunting App for iPhone, Android & Web

As a California resident I know all too well how difficult it is to find good BLM hunting land that allows you to hike away from roads and get at territory that is not shot-out or over-trodden by "interstate hikers" and "200yd truck hunters"... calling BLM field offices for info, calling local fire departments for burn permits and navigating government websites... Puke... While this product doesn't give you all the information a call to a BLM office can provide and won't get your burn permit for you it does make gathering large quantities of information easier to help you focus your efforts on the right area for your upcoming hunt.Having to gather the information to put together your next adventure is almost enough to take the energy for a 3-day hunt and flush it down the toilet. Land ownership changes and Hunt zones are redrawn and only the purchase of up-to-date maps or calls to field offices will alert you to potentially criminal trespassing charges or even being arrested for poaching! This product puts information in your hands that eliminates the need to do most of that leg work...With just two or three clicks of your mouse you can scan the entire landscape of California and see all of the BLM parcels. You can see which of them have the least amount of Trail access as well as which parcels are situated deep inside a ring of private land but are still accessible to the highway. And better still, there are map functions that allow you to see how far away the center of that BLM land is from the nearest roadway... All this together equates to 4 minutes of searching potentially yielding a parcel of BLM land that is only accessible to a four to five mile hike that has water and a quick call to that local fire station might get you a burn permit.Now this is how I hunt with my pals... Your mileage may vary... But when you land a shot on an animal (that you can already see will be your coffee table conversation starter with any hunter for the next 30 Years) and you see that comversation starter jump over a cattle fence and tear off into some Farmer's land, it's amazing to be able to pull up your GPS and see the contact information for the person you are about to start begging to retrieve your game...This product comes with a free full year subscription to their pay as you go service as well as updates that can be loaded onto your memory chip and installed on your GPS... The GPS that I use is a Garmin 64st and it works beautifully... Just the maps alone are worth the purchase and the tool suite that they come with just puts this product over the top!Before I start purchasing every state map that I intend to hunt over the next year-and-a-half I might even consider paying for their one time total US coverage map because I just can't see myself going on another hunt without one of these suckers!You will not be disappointed!

Here are some samples of South Mnt. Gamelands in NC for an example of different layers. The first pic is zoomed in hybrid of satelite image with topo lines superimposed over it. Second is topo only. Third satelite only. And forth is zoomed out hybrid map of the same area. It takes some time to figure it all out, but wow what a tool to use for hunters. You can get away from the crowds and not just wander, but go to specific features where those big bucks hang. Great tool! I downloaded this on my Garmin 66i so I can be mobile without cell service and put pins in see who the landowners are on bordering properties incase a deer goes on private land after its shot. That said, if you get good cell service in your area, the gps on your cellphone will turn your phone into a really powerful hunting tool. Being able to see satellite images of the Woodlands let's you recognize those points and fingers that those big bucks go to. Once you learn what looks like what on satellite you can then determine what type of vegetation is in an area. For example cattails are very distinct, and oaks look different than cedars. Again, once you've put in a little bit of research, using one is like having a drone over the area, minus being able to see the deer themselves, there just isn't enough detail for that, but boats can be seen with wakes behind them. Again, this is a GREAT TOOL, and at $120 it's really a steal, as you would burn so much gas and time and energy going out to put eyes on what you can see in minutes on onx. I can't say enough for this product, and if you live on a state line or you travel, you can upgrade to the national plan for like $40-$50, and have access from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Try this out, I'm sure you will love it!

Bought this because the last couple years while hunting I had been harassed by land owners while on public land, and one of my best freinds had been fined by sherriff for Trespassing, even though a game warden had stated that he was on public land, and that the land owner had illegally posted public land, and the Wyoming state land commissioner had later confirmed that the land owner had posted the no tresspassing signs ~ 200 yards onto the state land, and after words the state land commissioner said it was ok for him to post the public land, and he wasn't going to make him remove them, I decided to purchase the Wyoming Public land Map for the Garmin Etrex I had just purchased. Wyoming might seem like a big inviting place but the land owners here are the meanest nastiest people in the USA. and the law enforcement is owned by them in this state. If you plan to hunt or fish any place in this nasty state, you owe it to yourself to buy this product, to help protect yourself from this nasty land owners, judges and law enforcement officers in this place. I live in the state and work for the major government land agency and I work daily in and on and near the Basin where I hunt. If you plan on hunting public land anywhere in this beautiful hell hole of a state, whether you a resident of wyoming or an "outsider", buy this for your GPS.

Plug this MicroSD card into a compatible GPS, turn it on and you're all set. I installed it in a Garmin Rino 755T and now I don't want to leave home without it. If you want to make sure you're on public land while you're hunting or hiking, this is perfect, the map is right at your fingertips even when you have no cell coverage. Between the public/private land maps on this chip and the topographical maps on the Rino I imagine it would also be pretty useful for gold prospecting out here in the desert, but I haven't tried using it for that yet. Having access to the same maps on my PC and phone is a nice bonus, too. This and the Garmin Rino I installed it into were worth every penny I paid for them.
