Free GPS Guidance

When was the last time you or your buddy got turned around in the woods while waiting for that big buck to pass by? Or out on a drive, and by the time you worked your way around that thick stand of trees or that rock ledge, where were you supposed to end up?  Your buddies are counting to be where they need you, but where is that anyway?  Now you are turned around and not sure where you ended up.  You sure don’t want one of the other hunters to mistake you for a deer because they weren’t expecting you to come out way over there… Or it started raining buckets while waiting on the line, or worse yet, wet soggy snow; and it sure is hard to see those landmarks you were watching for earlier on the way in here.  So many things can happen to get you off course, especially if you are in a new area with unfamiliar landscape.  Now what will you do?

There are actually handheld GPS units that are built specifically for hunting.  These GPS units are waterproof for that nasty weather that is bound to hit right when you want it least, and you can mark your car, the tree stand, the hunting lodge and any game signs you may spot.  Some of them even include a built-in electronic compass and barometric altimeter! Think especially how easy it will be to get back out there tomorrow when you can just check your hand held GPS device to see where you marked special points and compare notes with your buddies back in the lodge.  Sweet.
