    My daughter had a Dec 1st bull tag this year. We had more troubles with other hunters screwing up our stocks than anything else. There were only 150 tags last year and this year they jumped it up to 300 . The quality of the hunt just went up in smoke because all your going to do is trip over other hunters.

    How does G&F hope to recruit young hunters when the kid does draw a tag it not any fun because of all the hunting pressure.

    azhuntnut,

    As I stated above and you may have read the picture quality goes to the lowest setting on video mode so you may want to move the camera closer to your target so when it takes the still picture you will be able to see how good the buck is. also it will ony take video during daylight hours and still shots at night on the low setting.

    good luck with your pics.

    the camera is a moultrie gamespy 2.1

    the picture quality is on the lowest setting when on video mode.

    it takes great pictures when on the highest setting.

    i have been buying them off ebay from bamacameras

    they go for about $200.00 for the package with solar and rechargable battery.

    the clip was taken this fall scouting for my daughters elk hunt

    Play with it a bit before you put it in the field. Your backyard, or front door seems to work best IMO.

    Make sure you secure it well, or else you will get plenty of pictures of birds in the tree above it.

    Replace the batteries everytime you put it back out, no matter what.

    Be sure to clear all branches away from it, as when the wind blows it may trip the camera.

    Do a little scouting before putting it out. Don't just stick it on the first trail you find.

    Make some attempt at hiding it, I have plenty of photos of people walking around tanks, but they must not have seen the camera.

    Try to keep it set off the tank, or trail a little ways to help get better photos of entire animals and not noses, and tails.

    Sometimes a little extra something above/near the cam will give you awsome photos, or it may get your cam mauled.

     

     

    But mostly stick it out there! You will never get cool photos with it sitting on your desk. (I need to follow this rule myself! :ph34r: )
