Title: Field 90 G3 EXP or the Pro 100 G3 EXP or the ???
Post by: Reuben on September 08, 2013, 08:21:04 am


was thinking about getting this one with 2 collars...I am thinking it might be a good one for the money...but I would like some input on all the models...I just want to make sure I get the best one for the money...don't want to break the bank but want a reliable unit that will last for many years...

thanks in advance...

but the Field 90 G3 EXP seems to be best for what I need...seems it does exactly the same as the pro 100 but with less gadgets...all I need is the high button because I want to make a statement to the dog and just get it over with...  :) but hope to get the pros and cons...the 90 is cheaper price wise but don't know about the durability...I suspect they are the same in that department...

   Rueben when I finally got too old to run thru the woods screaming and hollering and cussing dogs I looked into all the units and for the money I settled on the   SPORT COMBO G3  . it has done every thing I asked of it and has the range to reach out and touch some one for less than the units you are asking about . just my thoughts on it . I use the tone function more than the shocker now .  I love being able to tone the dogs back home from a distance  .

Halfbreed, thanks for your response...I checked into the unit that you have and the price is right and it seems to be a good one as well...I also found this one for $267 and it looks to be a good one...Tri-Tronics Classic 70 G3 EXP...looks like that one is great for the price...had some good reviews on it as well...that is what I am leaning towards...I have a long range mt cur that won't come off a track until he is ready...I am fixing to reach out there and make him mind...  :)

   lol yeah mine ignores the tone some times and I have to remind him what comes after the tone if he don't respond quick enough   . 

  on another note where do you get all your info on the mnt. curs ?  I joined squirrel dog central [ $ 10.00 a year ]  to get full access . and they have THE BEST  pedigree system I have found . you just punch in a dogs name and if it's in the system it shows all the info on the dogs pedigree back 5 generations , then you can see the siblings and half siblings as well . it's a good source of info . if you need anything looked up let me know and i'll see what's in the system on it and print it out for ya  .

Tri-Tronics Classic 70 G3 EXP...I think this is going to be it...found it pretty cheap...$267.00...but by time I get the holster and another collar it will be hurting my back pocket...  :o

I bought this unit with 2 collars back some months ago and really like it Reuben. It works very well for me, but I haven't had to try the range on it, says a mile and I don't doubt it. Tri-Tronics stuff is tough or has been for me. They have lithium-ion batteries now and last a long time, plus charge up in no time. I think you've made a wise decision....good luck with it.

I think you will be happy with it Tri - Tronics makes good stuff. The only reason I have the trash breaker is for the 2 mile range. they usually get about half of the range in the woods.

All of Tritronics shock systems are head & shoulders above anything else on the market. I have the Trashbreaker 6 dog system & love it, & like that tone button even better.
