Garmin Astro T5 Mini VS Sportdog TEK 1.0

Post by A-SHOCK »

I am thinking about buying just a tracking system. Any reviews on either Garmin Astro T5 Mini or the Sportdog TEK 1.0. Good VS Bad, Pro VS Con's ???

Not to sound like a smart mouth...but there is Garmin and the rest just follow far behind.....

My Alpha is far from perfect, but it is the best investment I have EVER made in hounds.....regardless how you look at it...

Good luck!!

I had the Sportdog Tek 1 and I now own the Garmin Alpha . VERY big difference. The Garmin is WAY more reliable and much more durable collars. Had nothing but trouble with the Sportdog , mainly the collars simply didn't hold up.
