the only good thing about a game finder is that you can throw them away. some sellers tell you that they will not give refunds.i got nothing but false readings.i could see a deer i shot laying in a open field. i still could not get a good reading. save your money and get something else you like.

They' re illegal here , and not a good substitute for developing tracking skills . Buy a good book on tracking instead , your mind weighs less than any game tracker and works more often than not .

Tracking skill is what is needed that comes with experience. If you see you deer go down, don' t go to it, see if you can follow the blood trail to it. When my buddy arrows one or I do we track it and gut it, then get the other guy to try to track it from the shot site.
The only game finder I rely on is my Beagle to find me some bunnies.
