I lost the transmitter for my shock collar last night. Walked through a bunch of briars and finally got out walking down the road when I reached for my transmitter and realized it had fallen out of my shirt pocket.

A couple of years ago my girlfriends grandpa found a tritronics transmitter laying in a ditch. He walks everyday for excercise and seen it and picked it up. Kept it for a few weeks and asked everybody what it was and nobody knew. I seen it and told him and turns out it belonged to a couple guys up the road, they had stopped to schock their dogs and set it on the hood and drove off and it fell off. They had already went and bought another one before they got this one back.

Lol My dad has lost several different items like that. Every couple of minutes I do a quick pocket feel to make sure I've got everything. That way if I do drop something I'll know that I lost it between this spot and my last check.

It was a lost cause to try to backtrack. I am headed back in there tonight hunting so maybe I can stumble across it. The handle is supposed to glow in the dark.

Sorry about your luck. Give me a call if you need another one. I may be able to get just the Transmitter for you but I will have to check first. Take care. 804-704-0336

I know excactly how you feel!! Me and my cousin were hunting together 1 night, and I had my grandad's old .22 he had for years and years. Well I also had a 5 1/2 month old B&T who treed her first coon that night......I shot the coon out, and leaned my .22 against the tree and started messing with my pup.....Long story short I was so excited about my pup that I forgot to get my rifle. My cousing thought I had picked it up, and I thought he had picked it up!!! So now I got my gradpaw's old rifle leaning against a tree in the river bottom LOL!! I have been looking for it for about 6 months now!!!

I had this same problem last year and luckily we found the controller the next day- buried in mud next to a pond that was rising. After that (and alot of kicking myself in the butt) I went to Wal-Mart and bout a couple strips of that D.O.T. reflective trailer tape. You can find it in the auto section. I cut it into strips and wrapped it around my controller. Now, if I ever drop it again in the woods, I can shine my light and it "jumps" out at me. It's kinda bad to have a black controller as it just blends in with everything else on the ground at night. Might not be a bad idea if Tri-tronics offered a blaze orange antennea as an option.
