Thread: GPS?

I went for the rhino and uploaded map onto it. Whilst the radio side doesn't get used, I like the 'just in case' option. Yes range limitations of the radio acknowledged. The best thing about a gps is being able to go somewhere new and feel a lot more confident about knowing which way the truck is when you come out somewhere different! And it's a great way to note where you've spotted animals etc for future hunts

Map and compass I used first, Still carry them with me now.
When time came I got the Garmin Rino too, Best buy for money I thought, Was $399 at H&F then got a mates map.
Found one spot in kaimais where my gps looses signal, I borrowed a mates gps went back to same spot and yep his lost signal too.
Don't always rely on a gps, Before you leave a main track take a bearing so in case your gps fails you no which way to head back via compass.
