That solution can’t be but so novel as I’ve heard it many times...and thought to do it myself at times. When I used a bell I’d “lose” a dog on point and spend precious time searching. I’m convinced that I kill more birds with the beeper than without. In the hilly terrain where we quail hunt, and with a dog you’re asking to range out to find birds, the beeper really helps. The GPS trackers will signal when a dog just stays in an area for long enough to set it off. With the beeper I have a much better idea what the pup is doing. It’s worked well for us for many years. There’s an up and down side to everything.
