MarshHQ

For solo hunters

Your own log. Your own spots.

MarshHQ is built around one bird and one flyway’s regulations, not a generic outdoors app with a duck icon bolted on. Log every hunt in under a minute, save the spots you hunt, and see what conditions actually put birds in front of you. Bring the kids and their hunts go on a record of their own — all of it free to start, no lease or roster required.

Logging

Every hunt, logged in under a minute

A personal hunt is a quick log at one of your own spots, always free. A blind session is a live group hunt at a blind you share, attributing birds to each shooter as you go — that needs Hunter Pro, included automatically for a paid group’s roster. If you belong to a lease group, MarshHQ asks which one you mean; if you don’t, you go straight to the personal log.

  • Species and drake/hen counts, per shooter on a group hunt (Hunter Pro, included for a paid group’s roster)
  • Bag-limit warnings show up after you save — the hunt always saves first
  • Real conditions saved automatically with every hunt (Hunter Pro): temp, wind, pressure, moon
  • A warden-ready PDF export of a blind session, with per-shooter attribution (Hunter Pro)

Youth hunters

Bring the kids. Keep their record.

Add a youth hunter to your profile with a first name and a birth year — no account, no email, and nothing else stored about a minor. Check them onto a reservation so the blind knows a kid is coming, add them to a blind session, and their birds go on their own record, not yours. Adding a youth hunter is free on every plan.

  • Their own progress page: birds, hunts, seasons hunted, favorite species, and a species breakdown
  • Milestones that stick — first hunt and how old they were, best season
  • Marked as youth on the warden-ready PDF export, so a blank license line is explained
  • Only you can see your youth hunters; the rest of the roster sees a first name and a youth marker
  • When they’re grown, send them a one-time hand-over link: they sign up, claim it, and every hunt you ever logged for them moves to their own account

Your spots

Know what works, and where

Save every spot you hunt — public timber or private ground — with your own notes on what works there. The map shows them all at a glance; open one to see the wind, pressure, and temperature bands your own hunts have actually produced in, once you’ve logged enough there to compare.

  • 3 saved spots free, unlimited with Hunter Pro — public hunting areas never count against the limit
  • Coordinates and your own notes on every spot, right from the truck
  • Per-spot breakdowns by wind direction, pressure trend, and temperature band

Planning

Plan around the weather, not around a guess

Every hunt saves the real forecast for an upcoming date, or that day’s archive record for a backdated one (Hunter Pro), then rolls it up per spot so the coming week means something.

  • Seven-day wind direction and speed outlook for every saved spot
  • A filled marker means your own hunts there have something to say about a day like that; an outlined one means not yet

Gear

Gear you don’t re-enter every trip

Save a firearm loadout or an apparel kit once, then pick it in seconds when you log a hunt (Hunter Pro). Retire a piece instead of deleting it and your history keeps working. Gear and band records stay visible even if you drop Hunter Pro later — only adding or editing needs the plan.

Decoy setups, remembered

Log the spread with the hunt — species, count, layout — so you can compare what worked next season instead of reconstructing it from memory.

Every band, recovered

Record species, band number, and where it was taken. MarshHQ never files the federal report for you — that still goes through the USGS Bird Banding Lab at reportband.gov — this is your own record of what you found.
