SOS & Safety Tools
Raise the alert. Share your location. Help others find you quickly.
Deer stalking often takes place in remote woodland, rough ground, poor light and areas with limited access.
Most of the time, everything goes to plan. But if something does go wrong, knowing where someone is can make all the difference.
STALK-IT SOS & Safety Tools are designed to help a stalker raise an alert and share their location with the rest of the group.
Why It Matters
A fall, injury, equipment problem or delayed return can quickly become more serious if nobody knows exactly where the stalker is.
In difficult terrain, describing your location over the phone or radio is not always easy.
STALK-IT helps reduce that uncertainty by giving the group a clearer picture of where assistance may be needed.
Safety Benefits
Raise an Alert Quickly
If assistance is needed, the SOS feature helps a stalker alert others in the group.
Share Your Location
Your location can be shared with other active stalkers, helping them understand where help is required.
Help Others Navigate To You
When time matters, knowing the right direction to travel can reduce confusion and help others move towards the correct location.
Support Lead Stalkers
For syndicates, estates and organised stalking groups, SOS tools give the lead stalker an additional layer of awareness when managing people across the ground.
Designed to Support Safe Practice
STALK-IT does not replace fieldcraft, risk assessments, briefings, radios, first aid training or personal responsibility.
It is designed to support them.
By combining live stalker locations, SOS alerts, live chat and shared maps, STALK-IT helps improve awareness when it matters most.
