Thanks..

Thanks! I'll be linking for these seminars, glad there are some closer to me. You all have been awesome.. Thanks for everything

Thanks for the help.. Great point in the right direction. Thanks again If I were you, I would find out how to get to the York pointer and Setter club, and join it. It is , I believe, in Rossville, PA which should be reasonably close to you. Some of the very best bird dog folks in the country can be...

Good to know about the launchers. Thank you

The reason the TT Pro is so highly recommended is that it combines the best build quality with excellent capabilities. The stimulation can be set at a very low level yet have two higher levels instantly available without turning knobs. Only the DT Systems SPT 2400 series has more capabilities as fa...

Collar Clinic says Dogtra is the best and I sure like mine. They repair all brands and that was their advice. I had a DT that I like really well also. Ezzy I'll check DT out also before I make any decision.. The cost of them (good e-collar) is not something I'm rushing into. Thanks for the advice I...

If you are a causal trainer, buy the cheapest one on sale. LCS has some great deals.

Thanks, plan to get the TT pro 100

I like a no frills turn the dial get to the level you need as fast sa possible instead of some fancy LED digital face slaw to get to the level of stimulation if you need to change it take your attention off the dog for way to long fangled collar. Tri Tronics has been the best collar for me over the...

Thanks for all the advice, great help.

Thanks.. Yes. I look forward to hunting with him and watching him point

Thanks for the help.. Great point in the right direction.
Thanks again

Thanks everyone, great help..
I'm going to get the Pro 100, just need the money.. lol.

Ruffbritt4., I got him from Rock Steady kennels

Meant to say can I get away WITHOUT the beeper

Thanks for all the help..
I've been looking at the TT pro 100 but it doesn't have a beeper to help me locate my dog or know if he's on point.. Is something that is a must, or can I away with the beeper?

What are the pros and cons? I don't want to get a collar that I have to replace for a "better" one in a year or two. Are either of these two collars something that I wouldn't need to upgrade later?

Thanks, I've been looking at Tritronics and will probably get one of them. Will try and spend a little more up front so not to have to buy another one later. Thanks for all the advice

Thanks!! I'll look into it
