TRI-TRONICS ALL THE WAY

Posted by Bluedogman on 01-31-2009 01:31 PM:

I have a Tri-Tronics Classic 70 I've had a number of years and it serves me well. It is advertised as 1 mile range. I mostly use them for training and not breaking so this is enough for me. A two mile range probably would be better for someone wanting to break from trash. I have only used Tri-Tronics and I would recommend them to others but I'm sure there are other good ones available.

We have a Tri-Tronics Trashbreaker....it's supposed to have a 2-mile range, but of course I haven't tried to use it on a dog that's TOO far away, so I'm not sure if that's accurate or not. They might be kind of pricey but I'd say any Tri-Tronics product is a good one.

tritronics and nothin else, i know of a couple guys with sportdogs and they shock about 1 time out of every 10 times you hit the button!!

SHOCKER

I had a Sportdog 3200 and I liked it.. But now I use a Classic 70 G2 and it seems to be just as good.. I would recommend either of these two shockers...

This is an awesome product. The 2 mile rang is a little misleading though. For that to have a chance to work it would have to be wide open flat country. and I think the humidity affects it too. But it does have decent range and works well out to about 3/4 to 1 mile in the conditions I use it in. I know this because me and a buddy tested it in the woods one night with gps to see how far apart we were.

I've also had sportdog brand and would NOT resommend these. Lucky to have 1/8 of the range advertised.

I would not own one without the tone button..Once they get used to that..Its just as good as the electricity..

I teach my hounds to come back to me when I use the tone. Then when I'm done in a certain spot and ready to collect the dogs and go to the next drop, I tone them and they come running back. It beats yelling your head off in the woods at night and they can hear that a lot farther than your voice (as long as they are with in range of the transmitter). Of course I never tone them while they're open on track, don't want to distract them.
