It's kinda scary what technology will bring up. But kinda a cool topic.

Hey Catdogs
Your deer must have lots of brush to contend with as these desert mulies hit around 40 and maintain that for a 100 miles:)

gps brings a whole new meaning to "miles" and miles per hour
ive learned that 2 miles--- may be . 38
depending on terrain and cover
where the dogs do 6 mph==== check your own speed , with gps

Yeah, thats right Pete. The GPS calculates the speed on a flat map, not the terrain. You can even get the information that the dog is bayed up 300 feet away, but it'll take you 30 minutes for you to get there.

Had a 15 minute race that went right at 2 miles. Average speed was 8 mph. Top speed was about 21 mph when the hog hit the open field. The hog finally bayed 300 yards from where he started.
I am overlaying all my hunts on goggle as well.
