The guts......

Here's my digital setup

Oh yeah....I almost forgot..... The moderator to this forum knows a ton about homemade trail cameras.....submit all questions to him.... hags

I don't really mess with the commercial models much. I've heard mixed reviews on the trail cams under $100. Usually the camera used in these models are pretty cheap. Short flash range and false triggers from junk sensors are the leading problems. I like the Owl PF 35mm cameras for the extended...

I like to stalk hunt on the windy days....especially if it rained or isn't too crunchy..... Pick a down wind starting point and work your way thru cornfields or thick wooded cover. Move 5 steps and stand for 10 minutes looking for EVERYTHING and ANYTHING that looks like a deer....Try to end your...

Thanks for the plug Patrick.....the checks in the mail...... I'm presently closed for the hunting season, but I will be reopen come Jan. 1st. I have a new line up of homemade trail cam parts that I'll be selling come 2004. The best thing about building your own is knowing how to fix them...

No Shot....Should have waited until he made his move. He may have turned for a better angle, but as long as he's looking at you and knows something is wrong he's going to jump the string. hags

Awesome stands....well worth the money. I backpack hunt on public land and nothing is sweeter then carrying a light stand on your back. They are very quiet to....I've climbed trees with deer in sight and completely setup without getting busted. hags

I pull my cams unless I'm hunting. I use my digitals as substitute hunters in other areas that I may sit in later. It's kind of like a hunting partner who tells the truth. hags

I tried the link....it's under construction. Anyone have a phone number? I'd like to give it a try. thanks.......hags

I always wondered if Stienbrenner was Darth Vader???? ...thanks fishbonker... hags

One that shots straight muddy....

I started as one of the 500,000 plus gun hunters who bought a license to gun hunt deer in Wisconsin.....Many people I knew shot nice bucks over the years, but it never seemed like some of them had a lot of input into their success....sure they knew "thier" woods and how the deer moved but...

Here's another view......

I sold one of my homemade cams last year to a guy in Illinois....this is what he sent me off the first....yes first..... roll of film he took in.... This was last year and they found the sheds....looks like an old boy to me....

OK.....that guys a fruit cake...... hags

Tall.....check Wide.....check Thick....check Good Symmetry....check I'm still jealous.....you guys are killin' me. hags

I wish the kid and his family good luck....it's going to get old with all the questions and comments. I remember the Zaft Buck and how much fun he had. Shooting a world record ain't all it's cracked up to be. Don't get me wrong, you couldn't ask for a better story, but I just hope the kid has...

hawkeyefan, I use ISO 400 speed film with my 35mm trail cams so the long distance photos still turn out good. Lower ISO translates into lower flash range. It's not a big difference with the Owl PF camera, but it could make a difference if the unit you bought has a lesser camera. Check your...
