TOPIC: Do any of you use a GPS?

I live in Chattanooga TN and have dug ginseng for about 24 years. About eight years back, I started using a GPS to mark were I had left Ginseng that was not yet ready to be dug. It has really paid off in the long run and I would suggest it to all young diggers. Especially if you are able to dig ginseng in large remote areas were it may be hard to remember exactly were it was or if you are getting old and forgetful like me. Just thought I would share what I have been doing.

I've been using one for 5 years now.....

We been talking about that with Tooler and Lumpy,,,I may have to look at buying a new toy before next year.

Hey Woodsman,,,you live in my idea of \"paradise\",,,good Ginseng country and Great dirt track racing!! And I gotta believe there are some pretty women down that way!!! Only bad thing is it sounds too hot in the summer for me!!

Chieftain has it helped you on the amount of Ginseng you are able to find from year to year. I have found that using it has help me alot.

Northern Digger, the summers are not that bad. We have a pretty good environment for ginseng and a lot of undeveloped woodland.

The GPS is good for that to. I have been turned around in the woods more than once.

it has helped me out lot. i can go back to the same spot and cover what i may have overlooked...

I went last weekend to a spot I had not been to in 5 years. I dug a bunch of nice Ginseng. I will try to get some pic to show.
