Dean, Im taking it that your question is whether the judge should instruct the cast to tighten up on a dog because the Garmin shows it out of hearing. On that, UKC has been very clear time and again. The Garmin has absolutely no bearing on the hunt. You cannot walk to a dog out of hearing because the Garmin says he is that direction.
I would handle it the way we did pre-Garmin, if no other dog was struck, we tighten up the direction the judge believes the dogs went. If other dogs are struck and can be heard, you make every attempt to keep THOSE dogs within hearing. The Garmin cannot effect the hunt.
