I'd like to get a new compass for hunting. The one I have wasnt correct Saturday and my gps compass has to be recalibrated more and more it seems.

Suunto makes the best compasses.

I don't know if this is the exact one I use (I'm not at the house), but it's almost identical. One piece of advice in general about compasses: if you have magnetic pockets on your jacket or waders you need to hold the compass out away from them or the magnets will dick up the compass reading.

And one more piece of unsolicited advice: get two and keep the spare in your pack in case you drop one. Two is one and one is none.
