Exclamation ScH Tracking ideas in very dry conditions

The conditions where I live are quite dry these day as we seem to be having a drought.. Nandi has been doing a lot more casting and head checks and losing the track when on this dry crispy stuff. The good news he keeps working hard and he is getting the articles but its practically like tracking on pavement!. Usually by the third leg, he will settle and the head checks are not as frequent. I have backed up and put more bait on the track, shortenend the lead and decreased the age of the track as he seems to gain confidence and learn. Any other suggestions?
