We have been using one for about a month now. Been tested in water, getting rough with hogs, going through fences, etc... No complaints here, been marking the truck, tied hogs, hot areas, etc... Pretty handy device. Now with that said, we only run the unit on a collar (harness hasnt held up well in our thick stuff) . Short antenna of course, only things we have noticed that could be changed is after about 1 1/2 to 2 miles we are out of range. Also it always shows the dog has tree'd a quarry since the antenna hangs upsidedown. Again no major problems, you just go to where your dog was last tracked and keep trucking. Dont get me wrong I still rely on the tracking collars and run them every trip, but Tony's Garmin has come in very handy. Especially on a "new" dog or young dog you want to keep an "eye" on.  |

I dont think it has a tree switch like regulare collars. Just when the dog stopps it will give you a message. I think it says treed, pointing and one other. Dont know how that fits into yalls law.
What is there reason for not allowing a tree switch in CA? Most folks I know including coon hunters preffer a collar w/o it as they tend to have problems with them.

Nope, you guys got it wrong, Regulations section 3678 of The CA Dept of Fish and Game states that it is illegal to carry, possess, transport, or otherwise own a tracking collar or device used in the pursuit, attempted pursuit of wild game wihtin the state of CA. A violation of this section is punishible by imprisonment in the COunty Jail for a term not to exceed one year and a fine of $2000.00. This law has been implemented as a result of studies conducted, which revealed that Said Items cause onwers to talk sloooow.  Hee-Haw-Hee-Haw |

Technology dependency... #1 problem effecting most hunters today. |
