I have one for fishing (basically the same thing). I guess it's ok but it's a gimic like most other hunting and fishing equipment. I found that trying to figure out the proper delay (greenwich time differental)was the hardest. If the hunting wach is using GPS coordinates then it may not be necessary to program greenwich time. If you get one let us know how it works.

Casio makes a very accurate watch. I have used them as my watch of choice for work. They never lose or gain a minute thru the entire life of the battery. As far as this one,just another gimmick I don't need to waste money on.

I have one of the fishing versions that I bought a couple of years ago. For the money, it's a good, dependable watch. It's withstood falling in the ocean a few times and being beat to death by castnets. As far as the feeding times go on it I'd say it's probably 60-70% accurate. Some people will absolutely live by the feeding times, but I think most people here are smart enough to know that there are other factors that affect feeding schedules. Overall, I'd buy another when this one falls apart.

Ok well I bit..Just bought one at lunch. It's a nice watch and by Comparison it was $37.84 and the timex I bought last time was $29.99 so even if it's just a watch..the price wasn't outta line.

Now I gotta find the English instruction in this giant book and figure out how to set it!!!

I'll let ya know how it works on the predicting side.
