Had them all, by far the best.

I purchased to give my dog more leeway other than a retractable leash. I find it easier on him, less tugging. I purchased the 30 foot lead. The only thing I may have done differently was order the 40 foot one.

Really love this long line. Easy to see. Don't need to worry about keeping it clean. Just wipe it down when needed.

After an old, flexible poly/nylon lead succumbed to my dog biting through it, I ordered this one as a replacement. I was quite comfortable handling the old lead and letting it in and out on walks, but it was easily knotted and could deliver a killer rope burn/cut, if my dog caught me off-guard and bolted. This replacement lead is a great bright color, is not likely to get knotted or caught if you drop it entirely. However, living in Anchorage, it is stiff in cold weather and not as easy to loop in and out in my hands as I adjust my dog’s distance from me. I am also disappointed that if I step on it to anchor my dog, it is stiff enough that it can slip from under even my studded boot. Something about it being stiffer also has me accidentally getting my foot through it n a dangerous situation more often than the older, poly/nylon lead I had. I suspect it will be better to handle when the weather warms, but not sure I’d buy this one again.

Would give 4.5 stars. Was told it was indestructible, my dog got it caught under the bucket of the tractor and the outside split. The inner core is holding strong. The outer material sometimes snags but it is really a great cord. Will definitely be ordering another!

I like the hi vis color and cleanability. Suprised about no hand loop but its solved a long term problem which is the loops catching on something while the dog is running leash on in an area where he could get snagged. Now I can make my own loop in knot form as needed or tack to form my own permenant

Doesn’t burn you hands and pulls easy behind the dog through the brush. Best lead I’ve ever used.

Works as advertised and doesnt snag going thru and around brush while training for the blood tracking portion of the VGP. Would recommend for sure.

better in the cattails

I purchased the 30’ Tufflex check cord so that I could practice long line work with my Clumber Spaniel Wil, who I don’t yet trust off lead in the field. It’s very sturdy but also lighter than other long lines I’ve owned. It’s hard to see in the photo because the grass is tall but the cord is bright and easily visible. I’m planning on purchasing more of these check cords as gifts for my training buddies!

Used to use ropes which tangled and got wet. This is a game changer for puppy Manager and also holds up to chewing :)

Great check cord. Nothing gets stuck on the material and it is durable and easy to see.

Received mine as a gift. Bought one for my nephew. I train dogs for a profession and it make learning so much easier for dog and human .

We purchased this 30 ft. line from Gun Dog Supply, and we've been very happy with our purchase thus far! Our dog is just a little over a year and this cord works wonders in keeping her within a safe range of us.

I got the 10' cord on closeout and I liked it. It does not get nearly as wet as the cotton cord that I had, and it slides thru the grass and over deadfalls much better than the cotton cord. It has a good feel in your hand and does not burn like a nylon cord might. I would buy it again.

This check cord is nice quality and does what it’s supposed to do. I live in the desert, so any type of rope material picks up cactus spines and other pointy stuff. The TuffFlex check cord hasn’t picked up any cactus spines thus far! The TuffFlex check cord does a pretty good job of not getting hung up on all of the brush in the areas I hunt. It is a cord, so it will get hung up on really thick nasty brush, especially when the dog is an over zealous 1.5 year old. I bought the 30 foot, but will probably get the 50 ft and the 10 ft as well. Shipping was top notch and fast as always. Thanks GDS.

Might work for a 45+ lb dog. My dogs are 20 lbs give or take a few. Outer covering is soft rubber. Hard to pull through brush once they zigzag through a few trees/bushes the dog is stuck. Guess I’ll buy some rivets and make some cool leashes.

Can't say enough good things about the TufFlex material. This check cord has worked beautifully for our 1 year old Lab. She has the freedom to swim and explore and we have the piece of mind knowing that if needed we can keep her out of trouble. This check cord is light weight and does not pick up debris. Clean up is a snap. We use a damp paper towel to wipe it down with and the cord is like new. There is no knotting and it slides through reeds and weeds that would usually tangle up a cord.

As always, Gun Dog Suppy delivers their product in a timely basis. I ordered this for training our 8 mo old Airedale Terrier to come. Right now he loves to play with it, so a work in progress….I will continue to order from this company as the need arises.

I was so pleased with the first lead I bought several years ago that I gave it to a friend who needed to train her puppy. I just replaced it for my two dogs early season refresher training.

Really good piece of equipment for the price.

Simple and effective. Great for training your pup. Material cleans up easily and doesn’t get snagged like braided leads.

This is a great check cord. I’ve tried other check cords, nylon rope check cords webbing check cords and with the tufted material, it is less of a problem snagging on brush etc. the the rope or web cords.

Slides smooth, and doesn’t get hung up.

It slides so easily through heavy grass and cover. Excellent hardware as well

Whoever made this put some thought into it. It's made with a heady duty clip and the rubber cord does not get caught on limbs or debris as your dog drags it on the ground. I love the fact that if it gets dirty you can just wipe or hose it off. I'm very happy with this product!

This is the perfect solution for training a puppy. Easy to see - even when dirty in the tall grass.

Same materials used as the Tufflex collars, not stiff and well made. Should last a lifetime. Nice clasp on the end to secure your pup.

Made out of great material, perfect check cord for training in the field

No snags--super strong. Gets the job done.

easy to hang on to, no gloves needed

Built well and affordable. I have 3 in the kennel.

Perfect for land and water work. Easy to keep clean

After picking burrs mud and water out of our previous check cords, this TufFlex check cord has been an invaluable tool in working on dogs through brush, burrs, water, and snow because nothing sticks to it.

For once a product that works as one would wish! Completely "Off leash" is not yet an option during training for our 14 month retriever. The 30 foot check leash has been just right - he can run through brush with it and it does not snag (as our other long training leashes did); at the beach it does not collect sand and thus does not "sandpaper" your hands (ditto for not collecting dirt/mud in the field, shakes right off). He is getting better on recall but 30 foot is enough to keep control if he is tempted to become distracted. We like the "orange" not only easy to see, but lets other pet owners know that he is "in class" thus maybe not ready for playtime.

This is simply the best check cord I have ever used

Soft, supple check cord, no rope burn, doesn’t catch in brush or bushes, no tangle around trees. Love it. Like leather, but more durable.

This is a great check cord! It is lightweight and does not tangle in the field. Very lightweight for a puppy to pull in the field.

A good line for quality that the dog can’t chew through yet light enough to throw another decoy or item attached to the end for a young pup. I would always recommend to go longer rather than shorter in total length

Does not tangle making it easy to use.

They dry easily for daily storage and do not snag because of their construction material design.

It is nice. You can trim it shorter if you like. It is a bit harder to hold when wet, but I would still recommend over rope! There are also no worries about it unraveling.

This check cord is very flexible and easy to hold. Won't slip with only a little pressure. Coils nice without tangling.

The brass snap is too heavy.

The TufFlex Check cord works great!

This works so well as we start our lab puppy's training! Well made, light and sturdy. Don't have to worry about it getting dirty or wet.

Was not disappointed. Was great on my hands and did not tangle when used! Exactly what I wanted!

Great training tool.

No tangles, no mess. Rinses off nicely. Glad I purchased this.

Nice check cord. It pulls smoothly through the cover and also doesn't slow the dog down on water retrieves. Very nice product!

Great durable quality and good price. A lot easier to care for than leather and easier to clean than regular nylon.

It's a good leash but I wish it was a bit wider. I feel this would keep it from getting knots which isn't a huge problem because the material makes it very easy to untie them. It doesn't knot up constantly but it does happen.

If you are looking for a check cord, don't waist your money on something else like I did. Get this, you will love it.

Wonderful product! This is my second purchase of the TufFlex cord. It is perfect as a lunge line for obedience.

Solid check cord that holds up during working sessions in the field. Easy to store and doesn't tangle!!!

Just used it a few times but like that it doesn't knot and is easy to clean. Also seems to have a bit of give which I like.

Great Product. I have had one for 10 years. Very durable. Shows NO wear. I bought the 2nd one now for my son's dog.

This lead is well worth the price, it is tough and briar proof just like the ad claimed. I would highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for a new lead rope.

It's the best I have used.

If it was lighter it would be better because when my dog is doing an exercise it slows him down to much. He will just stop working because the cord is bogging him down, with the lighter check chords he still works fast and he is not distracted by the chord.

Great for work in wet areas. Easy to clean.

Just what I needed for walks on the beach. Very durable and does not tangle.

Love this check cord. It's easier on my hands and doesn't pick up debris the way a woven check cord would. Also cleans easily if you're inclined to clean it. The only downside so far is it gets slippery when wet and becomes very difficult to hang onto with bare hands. It dries quickly so it doesn't stay slippery for long.

The check cord was recommended by my dog's trainer. It is an excellent product and works perfectly.

This is perfect for tracking. It is 1/2 inch thick, light and durable with a quality clasp. Another great item from Mr. Snell.

Works great in the yard or the field, and I have not had issues with it getting tangled up or picking up a bunch of junk off the ground.

Well worth the investment on this one. Dog can run freely, no snags, and very minimal tangles/knots.

Great product - doesn't tangle!

Easy to clean and helps my 4 month old follow commands by dragging leash even when not held. Also long enough to allow the dog to work close while under control. Not having end look is a big advantage when dragging lead through bushes.

Great visibility, and its sleek flat shape flow through grass and brush easily preventing snags and hang ups. Putting it up wet is no problem as the TufFlex will not rot. I love this check cord and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality piece of gear that will last years.

Works great. Doesn't tangle and is easy to hold when I need to for training purposes.

Works great. Does not catch on bushes or sticks while in use on the dog. Also it is light so not to drag down the dogs neck. Cleans up great in a bucket of soapy water.

Does what it says. It's a very smooth material, but it's easy to grip. It's not too heavy so even a stronger smaller breed can drag it. Does not tangle. Cleans very fast by dragging it through a towel in one hand.

The two 30 ft. check cords are for training to hunt and retrieve game. Can be used as two cords or combined for one 60 ft. cord for training. Our family home is in Dallas, Texas. And also still own my grandfather's old retirement farm in Henderson County, Texas -- which is now wooded pasture with stock tank and leased out for cattle grazing to a neighbor. It is my personal deer hunting land with duck, dove, rabbit, and varmint hunting.

The TufFlex cord is strong, easy on the hands, and best of all, wipes off and dries easily.

Great product in the field. Just a little too long for me.

Josie (dog) and I are training to be a search and rescue team and long leads are used trailing training. I had been using a traditional nylon rope, that regularly got knotted and hung up in brush when I dropped it for her to drag through rough terrain. I love the yellow TufFlex check cord. I can see her (she blends in WAY to well color wise) with her yellow harness and now thirty feet of yellow lead. We don't get tangled or knotted anymore either. Much better choice than traditional equipment.

Excellent product! While hunting in Southwestern Oklahoma it is great for visibility and being virtually tangle free in heavy bluestem, plum thicket, and various brush. I would definitely recommend over any nylon or woven product if you intend to use in the field.

Great

This product is smooth, strong, and durable. I know it is intended as a hunt dog training tool, but I find it very useful in the day to day active lives of my Brittanys. This check cord handles everything the Arizona desert can throw at it, rocks, scrub brush, and cacti. Nothing sticks to it that can hurt me or my dogs. I have had the extremely rare tangle up in the brush due to the dogs running tight circles, but I believe that is inevitable and happens far less with these cords than if I were using ones made from different materials. Strong and dependable. I will make sure every dog I ever own has one of these.

Great leash. Saw my son's and had to have one.

Pretty cool. Doesn't tangle or get hung up on anything.

Our trainer recommended both Gun Dog Supply and this specific leash. Our trainer was right on both counts.

Good check cord that doesn't get hung up & is easy to clean.

They say like leather only better. Spot on. These have changed the field training deal to a new level.

It's perfect. Works great for training!

Works well for walks in the neighborhood. Does not tangle like cotton leads or fray like nylon. At local forest preserve seems to work well at allowing her to run in scrub/weeds etc, without tangling the lead.

Great check cord. Doesn't kink up, easy to grip, and stows nicely.

Does as advertised. No tangling in the field, and the best part is it does not pick up anything from the field.

Resists tangling, smooth to handle, and in the field it will NOT pick up burrs like braided cords do.

I am using the 30ft lead with my young pup to encourage him while swimming. This lead allows me to walk the young dog out and get him swimming. Once he is swimming, the 30 ft lead allows plenty of room for throwing bumpers while still retaining control over him.

I love TufFlex products! They last forever, and they are easy to clean if need be. It is nice as a check cord since grass and stickers don't get stuck in the cord.

First off, I'm new to dog training. When buying a check cord, I wanted something that wouldn't absorb water and was easy to clean. I had a chance to use the cord over the weekend. It worked great. It got dragged through the water, sand, and dirt. It cleaned up easy and didn't get saturated with water and didn't attract burs. I don't think I'll have to worry about it picking up odors either. First impressions are good, and I think it was the right choice for me.

I actually love using this check cord. I found it less apt to abrade the legs on my 9 month old Vizsla who does a lot of changing direction in the field and spinning around. It's a bit heavy, which might be a problem with a young dog without much drive and unaccustomed to check cords. But it doesn't get any heavier being pulled through wet fields like some cords do. I like the high visibility orange. If you find it a bit slippery, you can wind the end around your hand. I wish it was longer...could always cut it to make it shorter if needed. SO, great product, but wish it was longer. My dog likes to work a little further out, and I want to encourage that.

Really a nice check cord. I tried using a plain nylon type rope I made myself, and it got tangled all the time, got wet and soggy, and one time broke randomly. This one doesn't seem to tangle easily, is easy to handle, and the bright orange is really easy to see.

This is a great lead. It is not hard on your hands and cleans up easily by pulling it thru a damp rag.

A great training lead. The nylon ones kept getting snagged on trees, sticks, rocks, and absorbed dirt and smells. These are light enough for the dogs to drag around, comfortable to grab onto when they start to run, and easy to clean.

Does not get tangled or covered in burrs. The option of a longer (100 ft.) line to work my pup on distance would be even better!

This is the best lead I have used in 40 years of training my dogs. After being coated with any type of mud, slime, or snow, a wipedown restores it to new.

I own several types of check cords and use them for specific purposes. What I like about this cord is how it is impervious to dirt, smell and moisture. I use it when I am hiking with my Lab pup. It is strong and light. It does not catch while he runs the woods, brush and water. Cleans up in seconds. Strong too with out stretching. Nice product.

It's just perfect, me and "sadie"lou" are in a deer search program.. !! we find wounded deer for hunters !! THANKS!

Would like to see a loop on the end to help in holding on.

One wish -- that it had a dead ring at the end. Leerburg has a similar item, a leather synthetic check cord -- with the dead ring - but black making it difficult to find. So if this one had a dead ring, it would be perfect.
