slugshooter Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Well, finally broke down and got a GPS, just the basic eTrex , as much as I would like to have one with basemaps and all the bells and whistles, I don't really need it for much else than getting in and out of the woods, at least in the morning, daylight I can get my way out no problem, but in the AM I usually end up trapsing around a bit to get my bearings. Plus, now I can scout out other locations and save them if I just plan on hunting them every so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugshooter Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 Re: Got my GPS today. Pretty happy with it so far, was fumbling with it a little today on my way to physical therapy, tracked my trip to and back. It told me how far I had to go to get home and how long it should take me based on my speed and all. I am sure there are plenty of features that I have yet to read about.

They can be handy, Ive got one that my dad won off a drawing years back never even use it because I dont need one where I hunt. Hopefully it pays off for yah!

Heyyy, I see you're from Effingham, I don't have any ties to it, just been there a lot cuz I used to drive a truck. I spent many a night at the TA.
