Adding tracking powder would help at ejection, but I think this guy is looking for a way to track during (and after) the full descent.
Sloan,
To do this "right" you probably need to look into tracking electronics. That may be a lot more cost/weight/complexity than you really need right now, but that is the normal way to tackle this problem.
Don't forget that you can remove the recovery system, leave your nose cone tethered to the rocket by a shock cord, and just let the pieces tumble down to the ground. They will fall faster than using a chute or streamer, and will drift less in the winds. They will also hit the ground a bit harder so make sure all your fins are glued on well.
On windy days at a small field you either 1) use smaller motors, 2) chase your rocket into the next county, 3) lose it completely, or 4) be responsible enough to make the decision not to launch (yeah, that really is an option).
Sorry that you lost a couple already but it sounds like you need to find either a bigger field, or a little patience?
BTW, if you want a little more tracking smoke during ascent, try the Quest motors. They produce significantly more smoke than Estes motors.
