anyone running GPS tracking systems??
ive heard so many mixed reviews its not funny...
im running coonhounds and terrain varies ALOT....one nite i can be in some serious hills and thick vegetation...the next rolling hardwoods and the next flat farmland...my hounds can get gone in a hurry...if they dont cross a track they keep goin...the female im running hard used to check in after a half hour or so and wasnt real long range, but the ole light bulb finally came on and she goes huntin...not uncommon for her to blow out of the woodlot and the next and be pretty dang far off if its a bad nite or not many coon around etc...
just wondering if the GPS systems would work for ME...i cant afford to find out the hard way and loose a hound...the 2 i run are worth way to much to "risk"...with the quick track, i might bounce off hills and have to do some extra walkin or driving, but i'll get to the hounds...
any info?? coyote/cat guys? y'all get into some rough country and long tracks...?
a beagle or bird dog or squirrel dog etc the GPS would likely be fine...but the hounds, i still dont know...
