My tracking system as a kid was a bell. Tracking systems have created independent hounds because in my day we hunted multiple hounds to hear for distance.
Thank you for the helpful information Mr.Natole. I got my first hound a couple months ago and she took off, but I caught up to her and got her. I watched your video and bought a Garmin Astro 220 and DC 30.
I squirrel hunt with mountain fiest like your vids do vid on trash breaking and staying on tree for a pup.... I use the dogtra Pathfinder I love dogtra
Great video Sam and thank you for I have never seen hounds hunting before. I was wondering on an all day hunt when, do you feed them? Do you start the tracking with hungry hounds and feed them afterwards?
Thanks for the video! I've noticed pet dogs wearing these tiny GPS trackers that connect to a phone application, and was wondering if they could be of any use to a hunter or a hiker. Any insights would be appreciated. What I figured out so far: -Battery life, depending on what setting you are using, could be 2-5 days. -The small size would be great for small dogs or for combining with other collars, though people complain they fall off easily. Might need a DIY to secure it properly. -They of course only work where there is reception. Personally, we're more or less always in areas with reception, but I imagine lots of people hunt where reception is a rarity. -There is a monthly fee, but not too pricey in my opinion. -They're a lot cheaper to buy than your standard GPS tracker. Edit: the biggest draw would perhaps be the range, since it's pretty much global (also depends on your subscription). So no fear about getting out of range.
@@houndhuntingbearandbobcatw4705 Sorry, I'm not 100% sure I got what you're saying. Did you mean that it would get to pricey (I guess the monthly cost would be quite hefty for a large dog pack), or did you mean that the application could only handle one dog? The website says you can track multiple pets on the same app, though it doesn't say how many.
Just found your channel, good information given simply and with clarity! Any thought that maybe one day some company will "marry" technology and combine GPS and telemetry capabilities and essentially eliminating an extra collar? Do you ever have theft problems? Can a would be thief use a magnet to also deactivate a tracking collar to hide the location of a collar? Somewhat old school here, having lived in the rural south, fox- coyote hunting before the advent of pens. WE spent days and many hours looking for lost dogs on many occasions and would also sometimes put a clothing item at the casting site and the dogs would often return and wait . . . .

Do you hunt bear with same dogs you hunt cats? If someone wanted to start running hounds what would you suggest on getting into hounds? How would you start puppies?
I do run cat and bear with the same pack. Hounds at my kennel must be good at both. Please check out my Pick of the Litter video and Hound Training 101, I think that will help answer your questions. Thank you for watching.
great vid thanks for your time great tips very helpful
Glad I could help.
Sam, good tutorial. Lots of common sense tips and interesting.
Thank you
Thanks Sam great advice.I need some name tags also

Yes, sir! This is so true.

Good to hear.
Great video!
Mark Rowe Can’t wait to get you involved! ;) ;)
Ever lose a hound to gators in the Florida swamps? I've known of collars getting tracked right to a gator or gator hole.
I personally have not. I do know people that have.
Ya man I remember growing up spending many weekends running around looking for hounds! Thank God for tracking systems 😂

George Mezines Always feed them in the afternoon. Never hunt them on a full stomach.

They could be of use to hikers. Hunters use a number of hounds so the application you describe would be very marginal.

I’m sure they will. Check out the new Garmin Alpha 200
Great info! I use both types on each dog also. I need to get some of those name tags for my Garmin collars.
