[wisbowhunter2009]

Well it's my birthday coming up next week and my mom told me to order anything under $200 and im picking a Garmin GPS 72 so i was wondering if there any good? It looks like its a good one but i wanna hear wat you guys think...

I have that GPS an have had it for about 4 years. They are a good unit. It is a good choice for the money. If you need any help with it pm me.

If you're looking for a basic GPS just to mark waypoints to get in and out of hunting spots, I believe this would be a great buy for you. I have had 3 different Garmins and love them. I currently use a RINO 530, mainly because of the maps, color screen, radio and coordinate updates from hunting partners.

Yep, good unit. GPS is an awesome. Just don't end up like some folks I know. They follow their GPS out of the woods 20 feet! Bizzare. Learn your area, know the terrain. A GPS is great for marking stands, rub lines, deer trails, blood trails, and more. Takes a lot of the boogieman out of the darkness.

Ya i just want something to mark rub lines, scrape lines, stands, where i put my trail cameras ( i tend to forget sometimes lol) and when im following a blood trail.. THanks guys keep the comments coming

Do you fish much? Another option is a Lowrance I -finder (several models available) that can take a chip (Navonics or Lakemaster). I think the Garmins are tougher but dont have the functionality of a Lowrance with a good chip.

If it's an "H" series good, if not I'd get one that is.

I mark stand locations an old roads in thick areas. If I get a deer in those areas down an kind of loose my since of location. I just mark the deer an figure the easiest way to him.

I had a Lowrance, but it broke after a couple of uses, Now I have a Garmin . It's easy to use and simple.
