I do the exact same thing with my DT beeper collar in the tall switch grass Sophia and I hunt. There have been more times then I can count that its given me and idea of where she is and if shes moving better then run point mode.

All we have is broomweed. If we didn't hunt the broomweed, we wouldn't be able to hunt. I like the idea of the GPS but lately I have been riding horses and running dogs so I am really able to locate and find them within seconds. I especially like the GPS feature of beeping at the receiver instead of the dog since it is less likely to spook the bird. I have to use trackers because right now that's all the AKC allows when my son runs dogs at their events. My tracker system was quite expensive so I guess I get my nickels worth. But for other folks, they might consider the gps. Thanks for terrific feedback! Dave That sounds good. All we have is broomweed. If we didn’t hunt the broomweed, we wouldn’t be able to hunt.
