ALL DAY EVERYDAY!

I don't go anywhere without my Garmin 60CSx. Don't go anywhere without a compass either. But the GPS is more useful. The compass only gives me a direction, the GPS shows me exactly where I am on the map, the shortest distance back to my truck/camp/road/dead deer, elevation, time, sunrise, sunset, etc.

They are very useful and I can't imagine any hunter not having one. Of course, as a land surveyor, I use a GPS unit almost every day at work so I'm probably more familiar with it than most.

I bet you know how to read your GPS Bobcat, Backwoods.......?  If you get a portable TomTOm, you can have someone to talk to out there.

you guys really love to

I would guess its jsut a good ribbing.   You have this "weird"way of phrasing questions that elicit the kind of response I would expect, and you are fairly consistent at it. 

For instance, I would guess by the way this thread was titled and by the first post it was more of an announcement than a serious question.  (Just an observation.)   It will elicit a good discussion which is always good, and if you are fairly patient and observant, you may learn a lot from those that post, even if it is sarcastic.  Hang in there.

and he's spending $470.00 too...

ooooh ahhhh!!! wow

[Buckmark]

nope im young and i want a gps and youre not going to talk me out of it.

" Arms crossed, mouth in a pouty position, feet stamped at the end of that phrase"
$470.00, good god man that would by another gun.

[backwoods_boy]

dont need another gun.
i want a GPS...why is that so hard to understand.

PS. i wish that i had the ability to delete threads after i realize what response the title gets....just because its me.
i think i am just going to slowly ween my way away from this site or at least from posting anything ever.
The verbal bashing, that yes i know "I bring upon myself most of the time" are becoming old.

[JackOfAllTrades]

dont need another gun.

BULL SNOT!

You always need another gun! That you set priority on this new fandangled electronic gizmo is your decision. But never, I say NEVER, say you don't need another gun. The first friggin time your wife hears that, she'll hold you to it down the road.

You've got a lot to learn!

GPS seems useless to me

Personally, I think you will be disappointed with this product.  Have you read all the reviews?  Unless they did some major over hauls, all the GPS/Radio combos I have heard about were very disappointing in performance.

You can get much better quality with less money in my opinion.   But then, I am a cheap basturd, and do not like spending that kind of money on important things like a scope or rifle, let alone a GPS.
