Thanks for the responses everyone! I appreciate the insight inot how it was done before the advent of tracking collars.
Txmaverick- I have looked into getting a Garmin on a few occasions but always get hung up on the problems people are having mainly with its durability, Which then lead me to look into a Quick Track but got hung up on its price and bulkyness. I actually sold my Guardian Kevlars in order to purchase a Garmin but unexpected bills came up and the $ went that direction! Now as far as what my dogs are doing, I started my tracker with my old one before retiring her and so he picked up on the "check in every 10-15 minute loops" I like but the last 2 hunts he has chased one a mile before gettig it stopped and then yesterday I have no idea if he just got on a "good track" and wanted to finish it and I should have let him work it out or if he ended up on a chase again. I am convinced I need a system of some kind so I can see the dogs working but have been told by a few people with experience with a Garmin to just wait to see what the new system is like. Thank you for your input!
I looked up a bull horn to use to "better hear them"! That seems like fun and interesting!
