Hey Harold, I had an experience a few years ago while Grouse hunting near lake Arthur in Butler County Pa where a landowner refused me permission to his property and asked me to leave while trying to locate my dog (things started to get ugly quickly). The situation ended well though it prompted me to go with a GPS and a little piece of mind to make my hunting trips more enjoyable. The one thing I did do last year to make things a little more streamlined was to pair the Garmin 200I to a Garmin wristwatch (I wear the watch while hunting anyway). Now the GPS pretty much stays tucked away in the jacket, and I can glance at my watch anytime I need to know where my dog is.

You can’t go wrong with a Garmin. I have two different collars (one big one smaller) along with the handheld receiver. I don’t know the numbers offhand but I simply won’t hunt without them. I too have lost dogs and there is no way to describe the angst I felt until they were recovered. We have a lot of very tall prairie grass and cat tails around here and the Garmin system is invaluable.

Going to go look at the Garmin 200i. There is a huge Cabelas 10 miles away, will look at them there, may use my accumulated Cabelas pts on it. Will have one and know how to use it by next season. I like the 200i's emergency locator ability if I have a problem and need to summon help.

You will NOT be sorry. And Garmin customer service and support is absolutely outstanding especially for the technologically challenged like me. I have trouble with batteries and flashlights. Really.
