Re: Trail cam advice

I have 2 Moultrie Game Spy I40 ($200) with a 1 or 2 gb scan disk memory card. My first one has been in the field a little over 2 months and only down to 72% battery life on original 6 D cells. Battery life was a major consideration for me as I can only check them every 2-3 weeks.

Re: Tree Stand VS Stalking

Commercial blinds, like the Double Bull, do offer some assistance in containing scent that built-on-the-fly blinds do not. I agree that scent control is less ideal in a "snap-to" ground blind but you can mitigate it some by: *Using scent free products i.e. laundry soap and spray *Finding or making ...

Re: Tree Stand VS Stalking

Just to clarify when I say "ground blind" I do not mean a commercial brand like double bull. I make mine on the fly once I find a good spot. I carry a folding saw, an old camo army poncho liner, string it up between some trees, cut some pine bows and add some other natural cover and waalah - a groun...

I have kind of have a half/half system (for thick forest) where I'll sit at/near water (a nice trail coming in) from pre-sunrise to maybe 9-10 am then I still hunt/glass (tough to glass any significant distance in th...

Re: Recomendations on Trail Camera's

So I moved my camera and set up a second one in a new spot, over water and minerals. There's a small den with a lot of scat (kind of big scat) with 3-4 trails coming into the wash. There's now 4 confirmed lions living in the area so maybe I'll get them on camera. Not too sure how good a spot it will...

Re: Recomendations on Trail Camera's

...and unfortunately not much - 1 doe, a bunch of quail and varmints. Its a desert area with a small herd - supposedly good bucks though if I can find them. After 6 weeks I pulled it and will be moving both to a new spot this Sunday. Here's a couple pics... http://www.keytothekaibab.com/images/cust_...

Re: Recomendations on Trail Camera's

I just bought my 2nd Moultrie Game Spy I 4.0 for $200 and they've been working great. I just checked my first one (for the 2nd time) this weekend that I put out 6 weeks ago and it still has 80% battery life. I only get up about every 3 weeks so battery life is important - and that's in triple digit ...
