Get the complete Pro-Tracker Recovery System. Everything you need to guarantee the recovery of your trophy.
The Pro-Tracker® Recovery System is a radio frequency system that is used in bowhunting. The radio transmitter rests in a carrier on the shaft of your arrow and deploys when the arrow penetrates the hide of the animal. The arrow continues to penetrate and the transmitter remains in the hide. The transmitter has a battery life of 18–20 hours and a range up to 2 miles. This means that if regular tracking methods are exhausted, the Pro-Tracker Recovery System can be used to locate your trophy.
The Pro-Tracker Recovery System ensures the recovery of your fatally wounded game. Every ethical hunter is troubled by the thought of losing wounded game, the Pro-Tracker® System allows for recovery of wounded game through the use of the latest technology. A poor shot, weather conditions and other factors out of a hunter’s control can make tracking impossible. Depending on a blood trail can result in failure. Unlike a lighted nock, the Pro-Tracker® System tracks your game, not just your arrow by detaching from the arrow and into the hide of the animal. Using radio transmission, the transmitter allows you to pinpoint the location of your fatally wounded animal. Hunt with confidence, hunt with Pro-Tracker®.
*This recovery system is an entire system for ONE (1) transmitter hunt. Meaning, there is 1 live transmitter and 1 dummy transmitter. Each charging unit can charge up to 2 transmitters. Additional accessories can be purchased.
This package includes:
(1) Radio Frequency Transmitter Alpha. Bright Green optimized for high visibility in low light conditions. High tensile strength steel hook with three barbs.
(2) 7075 Aluminum Carriers – Black Carnivore. Made from the 7075 aluminum alloy used in aerospace programs to resist high velocity impacts.
(1) Tracking Radio Frequency Receiver with Backlit LED Screen. Tracks up to 6 transmitters at once and shows if animal is moving or stagnant.
(1) YAGI Antenna.
(1) Practice Dummy Transmitter Alpha. For sighting and practice shooting.
Use the hooked dummy transmitter only on soft targets! The target needs to simulate animal flesh/hide. The barbs might tear up your target and/or ruin your dummy– remember, it’s intended to go into flesh/hide!
Build your own soft target. Here’s are the DIY instructions.
(1) Dual Charger for Transmitters. Charges up to 2 Transmitters at once.
(1) USB Cable for Charger. For charging from USB plugs and batteries in the field.
(1) USB to Edison plug. For charging at home from wall outlets.
(1) Custom Carrying Case. Custom built for optimal protection of the system.

All crossbows shoot differently. The Retainer Clips and Secure Bands require a different set-up based on your crossbow’s make and model.

( 47 CFR FCC part 97 )
Our low powered Pro-Tracker® transmitters shipped to addresses within the USA, operate only on Amateur Radio frequencies. According to FCC regulations, they require licensing for legal operation. There are no restrictions on their sale or possession, however Pro-Tracker® urges users to become familiar with and observe all laws and regulations governing Amateur Radio licensing and operation of the transmitters. Please note that Amateur Radio is not for commercial use. If you want to learn more about ham radio or to be licensed as a Technician Class ham radio operator please visit: www.arrl.org or www.gordonwestradioschool.com
The crossbow set up is the same as the compound set up, with two exceptions: The O-Rings and the Secure Band. After the clip is resting against the Transmitter, slide on a black O-Ring. Its function is to secure the Clip and Transmitter in place. Screw on your arrow, being sure not to over-tighten. (Figure 8) You’ll then need to use the Secure Band to wrap around the Transmitter and Carrier. Correct placement of this Secure Band is vital! It must be wrapped around the transmitter as close to the Clip without covering the Clip.
The Secure Band should not cover the Transmitter light or any portion above the light. The Transmitter is designed to break away from the Band upon impact. Placing the Band higher on the Transmitter affects its ability to break free when it hits the animal. Figure 10 shows the correct placement.
Once the Transmitter is resting in the Carrier, slip on the Retainer Clip until it is snug against the Transmitter, then screw on arrow to further secure clip in transmitter.
IMPORTANT: The clip must face the correct way! The backside of the clip’s “C” curve needs rest on the Transmitter to properly hold it down . As an additional help, we try to always mark the side facing the arrow with red.
We heard about Pro-Tracker from a friend and we were excited to give it a try. I was fortunate enough to have a beautiful 6×6 come in. I was sure I made a good shot but we couldn’t find any blood right away. The Pro-Tracker not only led us in the direction of my bull— which was lying on top of the transmitter!— it also led us to some blood on the ground. It was fun watching the number go up on the receiver the closer we got to the bull. And there he was! Pro-Tracker led us right to him. I would highly recommend Pro-Tracker if you’re like me and never want to risk losing your game!

the deer I shot this year went into some really thick stuff and the reciever had no trouble picking up the signal and lead me right to the deer. And the customer service is the best I’ve ever seen

I just got my second deer this year using your pro-tracker. I never would have found either of them if I didn’t have the pro-tracker. I told several friends about it. Two of them said they were going to definitely buy one.

It took about 10 minutes to find...

1st deer I harvested last month, using Pro-Tracker. It took about 10 minutes, he was laying on the transmitter. Everything broke away as designed, the arrow went through the body and the transmitter hooked into the hide as advertised.

Pro tracker makes so much sense turkey hunting! Its so easy to hit the bird too far forward and all you hit is breast meat. No blood trail makes it hard to track. Pro-Tracker solves all of this!

Great even out to 50 yards!

The alpha system flys/groups great even out to 50 yards! I was pleasently suprised due to the extra parts on the front of the arrow.

Actually that simple

The best thing about the Pro-Tracker Game Recovery System is that it is actually that simple. It doesn’t continue to get more complicated as you get deeper into the hunt. You just follow the strongest signal and it will lead you directly to your game.

It flies exactly where my pin is set up. I was pretty skeptical too with the hook, I thought for sure it'd throw off the flight and not be reliable. And I also wasn't sure if the dummy would be a good comparison to the real transmitter. But, true to their word, the flight was great and the accuracy was spot on. Simply put, I won't hunt without my recovery system!! Game changer!!!
