topo 100k map or birds eye for Garmin 320?

I ordered the birds eye subscription and hot the topo 100k map card instead. Wondering if I should send it back or use it, any opinions?

Birdseye only way to go.

Personally I like the topo maps better. I could tell a whole lot more about where I was at and where my dogs where at or close to with topo. To me the Birdseye was to fuzzy and distorted to make out anything and slows the 320 WAY down in my opinion and if you think it eats batteries now you aint seen nothing yet until you switch. I just didn't care for it at all. On the other hand I got a buddy that loves the Birdseye and swears by it. But I'll stick to the topo map. Also you have to download the areas you want on Birdseye and it takes FOREVER to download a small area .

With the Birdseye if your hunting where you know the territory to me it's a huge help. I know if there is a field road going in closer to where they are treed just drive around rather than walk. Try to figure out how close to a field or woods road with top not going to happen very easily. As far as guilty of map it all depends how big the area is . On mine I only have the area I regularly hunt. Definition is great can almost tell what tree there on.
