ColonelDan Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I thought I’d try using a pedometer just to see how far I stroll along the beach on my hunts. The reviews I’ve read on many are not very complimentary. It seems the common complaint centers on accuracy and battery life. I’d appreciate your thoughts and recommendations.

Steve Herschbach Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I've always used a GPS. They solve the accuracy and battery life issues. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geof_junk Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 I own a garmin VivoActive 3 watch, have had all previous versions. They have a pedometer built in that allows you to setup your stride length. As a bonus it has a GPS built in it. With this Unit you can count your steps, monitor heart rate and calories and your path on a satellite view with Garmin Express. By the way the GPS has outstanding reception in bushwalking conditions. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the same watch. The app shows you where you've been on the map too so you can determine site coverage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
