Turn Loose

The club app for hound hunters

Plan collar IDs so dogs don't jam, see who's turning loose today, and keep your club's kill log, missed shots and message board in one place, shared with everyone in your club.

Works on iPhone, Android and the web. Members join free with your club code; no email or password needed.

Today's hunt: every pack that's out, with collar IDs and track codes

๐Ÿ“ก Collar IDs without jams

Using Garmin Alpha / TT-style collars? Two dogs on the same channel and ID jam each other, and one handheld can't tell two dogs with the same ID number apart. Turn Loose lays out IDs for the whole club so the packs you hunt together never clash, and it moves as few collars as possible.

  • Priority groups: your crew gets every dog on its own ID number
  • Lock collars that can't change; keep spares inactive
  • Check your current IDs before the dogs go out
Plan tab: new collar ID layout

๐Ÿพ Who's hunting today

Check your dogs in for the day and everyone sees which packs are out and on which IDs. If two collars out today share an ID, both owners hear about it before the dogs go out. Share the day's list as a text with one tap.

Every hunter's collars, IDs and track codes

๐ŸฆŒ Kill log and leaderboards

Log each deer, bear, hog or coyote with the block, the shooter, the dogs that ran it, notes and photos. Season totals, top packs and top dogs keep the bragging rights honest, and the club history keeps every season side by side.

๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Guests and visiting packs

Hunting with friends from outside the club? Post the guest QR code: guests scan it, type their name and are checked in for the day. They see today's hunt and add their own dogs, and nothing else in your club.

  • Someone bringing their dogs to hunt with the club? Snap a picture of their dog sheet and the app fills in every dog's name, collar ID and track code
  • Add a visiting pack once a season; turn their dogs on whenever they hunt with you
  • Their collars are checked against yours for jams, but never touch your club's collar plan
  • Guests' days, kills and misses are kept; guests don't pay missed-shot fines

๐ŸŽฏ Missed shots and fines

A dollar a missed shot? Your Scorekeepers keep the record, set the fine, and see who's paid. Hit rates are optional, for clubs that like a little friendly pressure.

Questions

Does it work with my Garmin collars?

Turn Loose plans IDs for Garmin Alpha and TT-style collars (channel 1โ€“5, ID 0โ€“19), and holds track codes, including the newer 9-digit ones. It's a planning aid and isn't affiliated with Garmin: always confirm IDs on your handheld before you cut dogs loose.

Do members have to pay?

No. One plan covers the whole club. Members download the app and join free with your club code.

What happens if we don't renew?

Nothing is deleted. The club keeps working for 30 days after the plan ends, then turns view-only until it's renewed.

Can we try it first?

Yes. New clubs get a 14-day free trial, and you can cancel any time before it ends.

Who can see our club's list?

Only the people in your club. Only enter track codes in the app, never control codes. See the privacy policy.
