I have had a garmin Oregon 200 touch screen for a few years. I only use it two weeks out of the year. The touch screen is a little off and really aggravating to work. Has anyone had this problem? Is it worth it to try to repair or should I buy a new one. If that being the case, which one would you recommend.

I have the Garmin Oregon 450t and the Montana 600t. I use mine about 2 weeks a year too. I have never had a problem with them yet. I think for what it cost to get them fixed you may as well just buy a new one.

Thinking I wanted to get into the technology side of hunting, I bought a Garmin 60 CSX from a friend a few months ago (he only used it for his annual elk hunt in Colorado). Was I ever wrong. It is just to much for my simplistic way of hunting. I'm going to stick with my compass and maps. If anyone is interested in this unit, send me a PM and we can work something out.

If you may use the mini sd chips like onXmaps look at the Garmin 64s. I Had a defect on my 62s and since it was under warranty and they did not make the 62s any more they upgraded me to the 64s. C

I still have an old Garmin 12 I think it is called. One of the originals, probably close to 15 years old. Still works and have never had a problem with it. Hence the reason for never replacing it. It is a boat anchor though compared to the newer ones...
