Garmin Alpha 300 Ultimate or 300i Ultimate XL Buddy and Tread XL
The new Garmin Alpha 300 Ultimate is the most advanced, capable, and reliable dog tracking and training system ever created! The Alpha 300i has a whole bundle of new features allowing you to get the most out of each and every dog. Garmin has also kept the user in mind with this new Alpha 300i handheld that has never-before-seen new tools and abilities, and major quality of life upgrades!
Before we get to all the fancy new features, let’s cover the basics. The Garmin Alpha 300 Ultimate uses the hull you will be very familiar with if you’re an Alpha 200i user. The 3.5″ sunlight-readable capacitive touchscreen has been brought back with some tuning and readjustments to make it much more user-friendly and readable in low light conditions, without sacrificing the excellent clarity in high-light conditions. The core tracking and training systems and capabilities remain the same. Actively track up to 20 dogs with
compatible TT25, T20, TT15X, TT15, TT10, TT15 mini, T5X, T5, and T5 mini collars, up to a maximum of 9 miles away. Manage individual dogs and check stats in the dog list, and keep your buddies dogs saved and organized with the grouping system. The Garmin Alpha 300 Ultimate features collar update rates varying from 2.5 seconds to 2 minutes. New TT25 and T20 collars will feature a dynamic tracking mode that automatically adjusts the update rate according to the dogs behavior! The analog, button-operated training system from the Alpha 200i returns on the Alpha 300i. When paired with a new TT25 or previous TT series collar you can use tone, vibration, and 18 levels of momentary or continuous stimulation to break, correct, teach, and train your dogs! The “i” isn’t just for show either, as the new Alpha 300i comes with a built-in Garmin in Reach satellite communication system, which promises a significant performance boost over the Alpha 200i inReach. The Alpha 300i handheld also maintains the top-notch sensor suite and toolbox you expect from any top-of-the-line Garmin hiking GPS, including a 3-axis compass, barometric altimeter, precise coordinate tracking, and much more.
Let’s cut to the chase, or perhaps more appropriately keep YOU in the chase. The Garmin Alpha 300 Ultimate has an upgraded battery life that won’t give out in the middle of a hunt! It is approximately 3X the battery of previous Alpha handhelds or up to 55 hours of battery life! The Alpha 300i also features sleep mode, allowing the handheld to save battery while still staying active, and reactivating the Alpha is as simple as double tapping the screen! No need to stress if you forgot to charge your handheld or left it on overnight. Another feature highly requested is group sharing. Alpha 300i users will be able to SHARE ENTIRE GROUPS of dogs with their fellow hunters that have Alpha 300is instead of having to share one dog at a time. It’s never been easier to keep track of your hunting buddies dogs, and for them to track yours. Another huge new addition to the Alpha 300i is Channel View. This new tool monitors all Garmin radio signal traffic by channel and by individual codes, and shows you which channels are high traffic to help you avoid interference. It will also show you exactly which frequencies your dogs occupy all on one page. All this information will make it easier than ever to mitigate s ignal interference! A nice quality of life upgrade is the change to a USB-C charging port. On top of faster charge times and speedier data transfer, you’ll use the same cord as most new androids and iPhones so you’ll always have a back-up! You can also use those phones in conjunction with the Alpha 300i via the Garmin Explore app. This allows you to track your dogs and manage tracks, waypoints, routes, check HuntMetrics, and backup all this data and your devices settings right to your phone! The Alpha 300i features U.S. TopoActive maps as a baseline, and still makes great use of the HuntView Plus maps for all of your state-wide mapping needs, but we have a new option for those who go further in the pursuit of the next chase! The Alpha 300i is now compatible with the Outdoor Maps+ subscription mapping plan (Available exclusively through Garmin). All you need is a wifi connection, and you get download access to nation-wide enhanced topo maps, satellite imagery, freshwater features, state plat maps, BLM grounds, public land maps, raster maps, HMU’s, and USGS quad. Everything a hunter and outdoorsman could need anywhere in the U.S. for $49.99 a year.
Combine all that with a premier bundle of accessories to like the Tread XL, window mount, long range handheld and vehicle antennas and more! Get the most out of your new Alpha 300 right out of the box!

- Training setup allows you to pre-set your buttons like you need them. For example you can program your top three training buttons (located above the screen) as Vibrate (button 1), Continuous (button 2), Tone (button 3). Do this so that when you add new dogs the buttons are already the way you like, or you can manually set each dog differently.
- Competition timer gives you one countdown and 4 timers all in one screen. Name each individual timer so you can keep track of multiple counters at just a glance.
