I just want an app for my phone that I can point at the pumpkin and it will tell me the OTT. Just like the app you point at the sky and it tells you what stars you’re looking at.

I would have thought, inches on one side and CC weight estimation on the other would be more usefull?

Retractable with a lock feature?I would pay 20=30$ depending on quality.I dont know if I would spend 100$ that I could spend on amendments instead.

Wiz, that is a great idea...just make sure it is much longer than the pumpkin tapes we are using now.propably should be at least 220 inches, don't y think? Sign us up for at least one and FIVE for raffle prizes for our CAL meeting....

also , i would like to see nite vision, for covert patch tours, and a 3 to 5 megapixle camera for those missed sandbagger photo's, gps enabled for downloading the exact location of our pumpkins, oh and a lazer for the svb's, and one final thing, a self destruct mode, not sure why , just sounds cool...........

At first glance many things look good but after some reflection things change. New whiz bang toys are fun to think about but in this case not practical in my opinion. I’m not interested in a hard clunky device to play with that close to my pumpkin. Count me out. I’ll stick with a nice soft tape.(could use a longer one)
