OK I realize the thought of GPS is crazy for some for foodplots. BUT they really aren't that expensive. I've been looking into some. $1,000 ish could get setup. Be really handy I think. Anyone running anything SIMPLE?

I can't believe they don't have a good phone app for this, or maybe they do? I tried to find one a couple years ago but the ones I tried were garbage. For spraying or broadcasting when you don't have rows to follow it would be handy.
Are there service fees or subscriptions on top of the $1,000? A one time cost of a grand really isn't that big of deal.

I rigged up my 2720 with a harness for john deere guidance that I use spraying. I even set it up so that it shades on the map only when the boomswitch is flipped. No autosteer but works well. This wouldn't be very budget friendly for most. I just use a globe and monitor off of one of our row crop tractors. So I'm only invested like 150 for the harness and 50 for the globe mount.
