Mike,
I figured you would have something to say

Usually it is more like, hey you got an extra Garmin collar

You know I am just goosing you, I agree with what you are saying, I just still don't feel right not having both collars on at all times.
I know this is a little Monday morning quarterback of me but if at all possible once you see them bumping on a mile, go that way. I think you just about have to stay withing a mile or a mile and a quarter to have best results. If they are lost at nearly 2 miles and then you factor in the time it takes you travel that distance by the time you get to where they were they could be another 2 miles from you and then things get interesting pretty quick. I am not telling you something you don't already know, it is just info on what we have done in the past to eliminate that issue.
