Garmin will corner the entire hunting GPS market within 5 Years

This is the best way to show what I am referring to with respect to tracking accuracy.  The following image shows a series of tracks recorded on a trail over an eight year period.  The various blue lines were created using lots of different Garmin 60x series GPS models.  The red line was recently created with a Garmin Rino.

Are you using Birdseye satellite imagery on your garmins?  Is it easy to load?  I bought the Pn40 last year, and sat images take awhile to load, but turned out pretty cool.  I do however trust the garmins more after a few issues w the Delorme.

Bob, what's the scale there? I don't look at my past travels for the most part yet but I know with boots on ground it was within 6 inches or so on the display.

The deviation in that image of the Rino track from the trail is approximately 100 feet.

Call garmin, email that snapshot and get a new rino?

[Bob33]

I have two already.

The only issue I have had using a smart phone in the woods is that once the gps is turned on it drinks the power and you can't just throw new batteries in them like you can with a gps.
