Contors vs First Light

The hunting map built around the wind. Satellite and topo maps, property lines with landowner names, LiDAR terrain, and live wind and scent drift on your actual ground — plus Scout, an AI that knows your property. WIND AND SCENT ON YOUR TERRAIN See where your scent goes before you walk in. Wind bends around ridges and drains down hollows, and Contors models it on your ground, with scent drift off every stand, your route and your own position. Thermals pull downhill at dawn and uphill at dusk, and the map shows it. Every stand is rated for the wind you'll actually hunt. MAPS FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY Five basemaps — Google and Esri satellite, USDA NAIP aerial, USGS topo and Esri Outdoor — with contour lines, public land, crops and water. LiDAR hillshade shows the benches, draws and saddles satellite can't. All 50 states. PROPERTY LINES AND LANDOWNERS Parcel boundaries nationwide with owner names and mailing addresses. Save a boundary to your map in one tap and know who to ask for permission. RECORD YOUR WALK — NEW Start a track and put the phone in your pocket. Contors keeps recording with the screen locked and shows your time, distance and speed right on the Lock Screen. Save it as a road, ATV trail, walking path or animal trail. WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL Save your ground to the phone before you leave the truck. Imagery, markers, routes and boundaries stay on the device, and GPS keeps tracking with no bars. HUNT THE RIGHT DAYS A 16-day forecast for your property with a deer movement rating for every day and hour, first and last light, the pressure trend, the next front, and rut timing for your county. ASK SCOUT Scout knows your stands, your sightings and today's conditions. Ask which stand to sit on a northwest wind and it names the stand and tells you why. Tell it to drop a stand or draw an access route and it does it on your map. YOUR BUCKS AND YOUR SEASON Upload a trail-camera photo for an estimated age and score. Build a hit list, log sightings by voice, and let the journal stamp the wind, temperature, pressure and moon automatically. SHARE WITH YOUR CLUB Invite your hunting partners to the same map — stands, cameras and sign — and share your live location when you choose to. BRING YOUR MAPS Import GPX, KML, KMZ or GeoJSON and your stands, trails and boundaries come straight across.

First Light scores a buck from one head-on photo, or from a tape. Trace each beam and tine and it measures every line against a scale in the picture, or type a Boone & Crockett sheet by tape, to the eighth, with no photo at all. Every total reads in eighths, like 21 4/8. Legal shooting light, a last-light alert and solunar times stay free. SCORE A BUCK, HEAD-ON Head-on photos score closest (within about 15 percent on 17 record racks) because both antlers sit square to the camera. Side views are rough. The guide shows what to shoot: 1. Take or choose a head-on photo of the rack. 2. Trace each beam and tine with the magnifier. Every line stays on the photo to check. A line that looks off gets flagged, and so does an antler running off the photo. 3. Read gross and net, each with its own range. Circumference reads are steadier, so the same photo scores closer each try. Tape one inside spread and the ranges tighten. The score card crops to the rack with a big number, ready to share. Whitetail, mule deer and elk use the standard North American rules, typical and non-typical. A photo score is an estimate, good for comparing bucks. It is not an official score; a real tape on the rack is what counts. You can choose to send a scored photo to help tune accuracy; nothing is sent unless you do. Try the demo rack first. Your first score of your own photo is free. SCORE A SHEET BY TAPE Type each tape measurement to the eighth, such as 5 3/8, and watch the sheet add up. Gross is free for everyone. First Light Pro adds typical or non-typical net, plus a badge when the buck reaches the Pope & Young or Boone & Crockett minimum. Fields and Save stay above the keyboard. FOLLOW HIM, AND SEE WHEN HE MOVES Name each buck, add dated trail-camera photos and watch his score grow season to season, with its range. Then open "When he moves": each buck's photo times set against first light, last light and the solunar periods, like "4 of 5 photos within 40 min of last light." It all stays on your phone. The Sunday trail-cam reminder is off until you turn it on. HUNTING TIMES, FREE First Light works out legal shooting hours from your GPS, on your device and with no signal needed. Tap "Use my location" (or type coordinates to scout ahead) for today's window with a live countdown, or open the 7-day week. Times use the spot's own time zone, even far from home. Each day gets an activity rating, solunar times and the moon phase, and the app picks the best day with the reasons why. With a signal it adds the MET Norway forecast: barometer, wind and temperature. The rating is lore, not a promise; legal hours never lean on it. The optional last-light alert speaks up 15 minutes before shooting light ends. The default offset is 30 minutes before sunrise and after sunset, and you can change it because legal offsets vary by state and species. Please verify with your local wildlife agency. Shooting-hour offsets and season dates vary by state and species and change every year. First Light has no per-state regulation data or season dates and does not replace your state's official regulations. There is nothing to sign into, and it works offline. Your coordinates stay on your phone. With a signal, a copy rounded to about a kilometre goes to MET Norway for the forecast. What costs nothing: hunting times, the 7-day week, solunar times, the last-light alert, the demo rack, gross on the tape sheet and your first score. First Light Pro adds unlimited scoring of your own photos, net and minimum badges on the tape sheet, the hit list with its growth chart, and "When he moves", on a yearly or monthly subscription, each beginning with a 1-week free trial. Subscriptions renew on their own; switch renewal off under Subscriptions in your Apple ID before the period ends.
