That would be great for us. Not so much for sportdog. That was the only advantage they had on the Garmin tracker. I'm excited about all of the new technologies and what they could mean for the future of our sport. Now if only someone could develop an elk scent detector for me to check my dogs with. :lol:

an all in one would be nice, but don't think I would be able to afford it. Especially for all my trashy s**t eating dogs :lol:

Dogtra is garbage.
Marshall needs to hurry the (beep) up and launch a superior gps system.

one problem i could see is if they ran it off the same battery source it would drain it enough shocking a dog that it would cut the tracking time down .it would be great if these dogs didnt have to wear so many collars . all i can think of when i put all the collars on is those women in africa with all the rings on their necks making them stretch.

Any idea what this means for the Tri-Tronics stuff being made in USA? I'm not sure, but I believe Garmin is made overseas. I would have to assume they would move the Tri-Tronics stuff overseas as well. Any ideas?
