As we are all giving our personal opinions and methods, and probably wont be changing them (i wont) lets all agree to disagree....i take all three, topo map (of my intended hunting area) compass and my GPS....
I have been doing this since i started hunting (only the last 18 months) as i never ventured far from the DOC track in the bush.....
but now i bush hunt, i have found the GPS invaluable, as i get back to camp faster and before it gets (too) dark.....but if it malfunctions, i lose it, runs out of batteries, dropped and breaks...
i have my trusty 'magnetic needle & scrawly piece of paper on me to get back (security blanket, arrrr).....learn how to use a map & compass, it can save you so much hassle & stress...it has for me on many occasions
