Best purchase I've made for bird hunting period. No more searching for a dog on point that you can't see in heavy cover. No more wondering where/what they are doing, it's all right there in real time in the palm of your hand. Beeps when they go on point, tells you if they are running, sitting,pointing, and gives stats like distances for your dogs and you, as well as dogs average speed. Lots of info to view.
I setup a geofence of 100 yards on mine so if either of my dogs gets out past that point, it beeps at me. Its made my hunt so much more relaxing and enjoyable, not always having to keep track of the dogs whereabouts and how far out they are (I have 3 big roaming gsps)
One downside....im on my 3rd handheld. The screen will freeze up and the unit shuts down. Garmin has replaced it twice. So far no freezing with the one I picked up last month. Fingers crossed.
The technology is so impressive, I couldn't imagine ever hunting without it again.
