bubba,
My brother had one but it was stolen. He got some very nice pics. I think they are worth having. It is like scouting with out spending so much time in the woods.
Bubba, I've had mine for about 8 months and got some really good pics last fall. I was even lucky enough to get a picture of my bow buck two weeks before I shot him, before that I didn't even know he existed. The pic from the Camtrakker showed he had a split or double mainbeam on the right side...when I shot him he had broken off about 10"-12" of the lower mainbeam fighting, sometime since the Camtrakker pic was taken. Although there is always the threat of some lowlife stealing the camera...for me the payoff is worth the risk. I think a new Camtrakker runs around $430 + shipping. If the price is a little too steep there is a website for building your own for a lot less $$$...sorry I don't know the link, maybe someone else will post it here. www.camtrakker.com
Info for building one can be found at jessieshuntingpage.com Ready made circut boards or kits can be found at fieldpix.com With a little scrounging and buying these parts, you can build one for around 125.00 Including camera. I'm planning on building one soon. Good luck, Jay
That above picture I had a sequence of 6 pictures. Him coming in to the scrape, working it, and then leaving. Would not have gotten that with a Camtrakker.
This is another picture of a good buck that was on my ground
Camtrakkers Minimum setting is 20 sec.
This series was taken in 1 minutes time.
I am not knocking Camtrakker here. I have one, and it takes GREAT pictures.
I can build 3 of these, and have change left over. And if one is stolen, I am not out as much. $430.00 + Tax is alot of money to me.
