To him, we’re just having fun. To me, we are developing a bond to last a lifetime, we are practicing, we are training, we are honing in on that natural prey drive, and we are we are having fun doing it.

 I would be happy to break even at the end of the season, but most people would scoff at the price and leave dead deer in the woods.

People balk at paying tracking fees. What they don’t see is everything that goes on behind the scenes. Training, food, gear, vet bills, you name it.

I don’t know a single tracker that makes enough money tracking to justify doing it for the money. At the end of the day, it’s probably a “minimum wage” job at best.

We put ourselves and our animals in harms way every single time we unload them. Case in point, our friend Lindsey was tracking for a client yesterday. Lindsey is a MASTER tracker/trainer. Her dogs are the best of the best.

Yesterday they were called out to help a hunter recover a wounded whitetail. In the process of the track her dogs got on a very large wild boar. The boar attacked the dogs and left them for dead. Thank God she got to them, got them to the vet and they are going to be ok.

I don’t know the number, but I’m quite certain the vet bills from yesterday will be more than an entire season of “tracking money”.

So, the next time you call a tracker and they tell you $100, $200, $500, whatever, keep all of this in mind. We don’t do it for the money. We do it because we enjoy it. We enjoy helping folks find their animal they most likely wouldn’t have found otherwise. And, if we don’t find it at least they have peace of mind that the animal will most likely be ok.

PS In case you are wondering, yes that boar is at the sausage factory today…..
