[gps-talkusers] Re: One more: Disc golf.

Hi Christopher
Sounds like a great idea. Remember when creating a manual route just make sure if you want to put in turns that you save the waypoint as a turn before you make the turn. Also make sure your heading is correct before you mark the waypoint. If you know you are heading North make sure the system says North before you mark a turning point or else later when you follow it again the system could give you incorrect turning information.
If your heading is wrong, what I would do is back up 30 feet or so turn around and try again until the heading is correct. Remember to walk a little fast around 2MPH to get a reliable heading. 

Have fun with this and let us know how it turns out.

I'm about to try an application that I've not heard mentioned. I play disc golf, and I intend to set up a route through a course with way points at the teas and the baskets, then use the destination command to give me heading and distance information from my various disc positions. Has anyone else tried this and does anyone have any suggestions to build on my idea to make it more effective?
