Whitetail Pro Log
By Keith Dewars*
 Do you keep track of your hunts? Do you remember what the
weather was
like when you shot that monster buck? Have you ever wanted to get that
buck's rack measured? I recently took a look at Whitetail Pro Log, a
software application designed to easily and accurately manage and store
whitetail harvest data and trail camera pictures.
After seamlessly installing the program and rebooting my computer, I
started the application and filled out the setup information, which included
my hunting club name, address, website URL, etc. This information, along
with a company or club logo, can be printed on any reports that you wish
to output.

Next, I tried out the data entry section, which consists of two
parts-
- The first set of information, on the left-hand side of the screen, is
where information is entered about the deer that you or your clients
harvest. This information can include the hunter's name, harvest method,
date, time and location of the kill (even GPS coordinates), and weather
conditions such as wind speed and direction, temperature and barometric
pressure. Other input fields include the deer's age, gender, size and
condition, and a spot to display a photo of the successful hunter.
- The second information area, on the right-hand side of the screen, is
for inputting antler data, the measurements of mass and tine length for
your trophy. The program supplies you with handy charts that can be
printed to help you with this task; they show where the measurements
should be taken. After your antler measurements are entered, simply
click the "Score" button, the program calculates the Gross and
Net measurements for the buck. This can be tailored to suit the type of
score you prefer, Pope and Young (P&Y), Boone and Crockett (B&C)
or Buckmasters Trophy Records (BTR).
The information you provide can be printed out in reports that will
calculate the average age of deer harvested, average weight, average
rack size, etc. This can come in handy for the recreational hunter who
wants to keep better track of the deer herd on his property or for the
large hunting club that wants to manage their deer herd for size and
health.
Whitetail Pro Log also allows you to manage your trail cam images and
any pictures you may have taken during the hunting season.
Double-clicking an image allows you to view that image at full screen.
Whitetail Pro Log is an easy to use program that would be a useful tool
for any hunter's computer. To find out more about Whitetail Pro Log or
to purchase a copy of the program, go to www.WhitetailProLog.com.
