Simple GPS for hunting

I have an elaborate Garmin GPS which stores 400 waypoints, tells me speed, elevation and everything else but the weather. It's a great GPS, but I have always wanted something more simple with far less bells and whistles...
I just got a Bushnell BackTrack GPS. It's about the size & shape of a hockey puck and hangs around your neck and it is incredible simple. The GPS only stores 3 waypoints and only has 2 buttons. It is designed to mark a waypoint (say your car when you go hunting) and then you can go anywhere and when you hold the unit level it will point you in the direction of your car and tell you the distance in yards. That's all it does, very simple and extremely functional.
I have a feeling this is going to be a great help when I am hunting new spots or out west this fall for muleys. Cabelas currently has them on sale and there are a number of reviews on YouTube.
