Turn Loose is the club app for hound hunters. It keeps every dog's collar ID straight, shows who's turning loose today, and holds your club's kill log, contests, missed shots and message board, all shared with your club in real time. PLAN COLLAR IDs WITHOUT JAMS Using Garmin Alpha / TT-style collars? Two dogs on the same channel and ID jam each other, and two dogs on one handheld with the same ID number get mixed up. Turn Loose lays out IDs for the whole club so the packs you hunt together never clash, moving as few collars as possible. • Priority groups: every dog in your crew gets its own ID number • Lock collars that can't change, mark spare collars inactive • Check today's IDs for conflicts before the dogs go out WHO'S HUNTING TODAY Check your dogs in for the day and everyone sees which packs are out and on which IDs. Collar jams between today's dogs are flagged right away. GUESTS AND VISITING PACKS Someone hunting with the club for the day checks in with your club's guest QR code or guest code, sees today's hunt and adds their dogs. Someone who brings their dogs to hunt with the club? Take a picture of their dog list and the app fills in every dog's name, collar ID and track code. Their dogs are checked for jams but never touch your club's collar plan. KILL LOG AND CONTESTS Log deer, bear, hogs and more with the block, the shooter, the dogs that ran it, notes and photos. Season totals, leaderboards, big buck and doe contests with a step-by-step B&C scorer, and your club's history season by season. MISSED SHOTS Keep a friendly record of shots that got away. Scorekeepers can track fines and who has paid. Guests don't pay fines. CLUB MESSAGE BOARD Post to the whole club with photos, comment, react and tag people. See who has seen each post. Report or block anyone; admins can pin or remove posts. ALERTS Get a notification when someone's hunting, a deer is down, two collars out today share an ID, or there's a new post. Everyone picks the alerts they want. BUILT FOR CLUBS • Members join free with a club code: no email or password • Turn features on or off for your club • Admins run the club; members edit their own hunters and dogs • View-only members can see everything without changing anything • Works offline in the woods and syncs when you have signal PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your club's list is only visible to your club. No ads, no tracking. Delete your data any time from the app. Turn Loose is a planning aid and isn't affiliated with Garmin. Only enter track codes in the app, never control codes. Always confirm IDs on your handheld before you cut dogs loose. ## Is Turn Loose safe? Not enough ratings yet to assess Turn Loose. ## Is Turn Loose legit? Turn Loose has limited verification signals.
