You going to go with the Vista, like I was playing with at Mike's ?? You can get software and mapping to interface with the computer with it.

Roy you dont need no stinking GPS!!!!!!!!!!!! You dont even have to leave the camp area to take quality deer on that ranch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to get lost out there. I can think of far worse places to get lost at. If I was lost, I wouldn't have to leave!

The man speaks the truth.

I wish kent could get the video clips on here. There is one the PETA people would love............wait 2

i am working on it.....not sure if this old computer I am on can handle that kind of load.......may have to be right after thanksgiving......

Kent you using photobucket ??

haven't yet......i have to hook the video camera up to this old computer and i am not sure it has enought ooomphhh to get it done.....may have to wait until i get home and use the laptop...

Photobucket can take a direct feed from the camera, without having to download on your computer

good deal. will try it in the morning......the bed is calling my name...

Good night, I'm gone too.

You guys are killing me!!!


At least I get to read about it
and see some pic's (keep'em coming).

Roy, unless you've already bought a GPS
or have one with all the bells and whistles
you've decided you just have to get,
the little yellow etrex by Garmin (about $100.00)
is a very servicable unit. No maps or such but
has very good battery life, gives good info and
has gotten me back to the truck many times I
otherwise would have done ALOT more walking.
(Not lost really, just not sure the best way
to get there ) But if you've already
decided on one of the whiz-bang models, who
am I to get between a man and his toys, er, I
mean tools

Again, sounds like y'all had a trip that will
always be remembered and that's a GREAT thing.

Roy, a GPS is a fun toy, but I hav seen way too many people buy the things, mess with them a few months, and then stop carrying them. All you need to do is pick out some landmarks and maybe get a real good topographic map or arial map of the ranch and get all the drivable roads figured out. Also, and old Indian trick, always look back at the country your traveling thru. "White man only looks at one side of things, don't recognise the country when he goes back the other way. Indian looks at all sides so he will know where he needs to go on the way back." Also, always park your vehicle on the highest spot around, so that you can see it from a long way, and carry some survey tape with you.

If you'll poke a stick in the ground and
watch the shadow for an hour, you won't
even need a compass.






I'M KIDDING!! JUST A LITTLE HUMOUR!!
OK, very little.

PK

He!! I am still trying to figure which way is North

Hummmmmmmmmm I can see where you could have trouble with that, Maybe you should be looking for south.

Well guys the saga continues!!!!!!!! We start processing the does tonight and Pam points a very large and sharp knife at me and tells me to go play on the forum!!!!!!!!!

One very smart woman

Good job Pam....

Damn your hide, I bet Lora that wouldn't happen!! I think once you all get these first ones out of the way you will like doing it yourself. Plkus it says a little $$$$$.

Kent what happened to the pic's

I am out of town and this computer won't handle the video...it is an old puter......i am heading home tomorrow and will get them loaded up....

Sounds good, though we were going to have to call SH and sic Pam on you

Can someone tell po' ol' toopid me how to post photoes? I have pics both from this hunt, as well as Thanksgiving @ HunterTed's with Mr and Mrs Saginaw. Thanks

Lora
