Training Bird Dogs this Summer? Get the Alpha!
Fall bird hunting season in these parts begins just 80 days from today (not that anyone's counting or anything). Are you ready? Are your dogs?
Two pieces of gear that are vital for bird dog trainers are a reliable e-collar and a dependable GPS tracking device. Garmin and Tri-Tronics has a state-of-the-art system that'll combine the best of both – called the Alpha. It's a powerful track-and-train system in one handheld unit. It's got a bright, glove-friendly color touchscreen for viewing your dog's location (up to 20 at once) and it has three dedicated and completely customizable buttons across the top for training your dogs.
Last winter, we began a partnership with bird dog legends Rick Smith, Ronnie Smith, and Susanna Love to put the Alpha through its paces at the beautiful Flint Oak Lodge in the Flint Hills of Kansas. Watch the video below to see how the Smiths use their electronics for more success in the field:
