Cams

We have used Stealthcams, cuddybacks, Primos, WGI and others. So far, the best mid priced we've found is the Primos truth cam 35. There is a version that you can find on sale every now and then for around $80-90. I think they retail for $119. Most reliable, best battery life and ease of use.

Stealthcam was good but didn't last too long. Cuddyback is Schizophrenic. Everything is rocking along fine and you change the card and come back to no pics.

and my apologies to the Busbice boys but the WGI are junk. More difficult to use and only work when they want too. Bought two recently. First one the flash would not work at night from the first time we used it. Returned it for a replaacement and it took exactly one picture. Me...Putting it out.

Primos Truth Cam 35

I have used nearly all of them at one time or another. The most consistant camera with the best battery life for the best bargain has to be the Primos Truth Cam 35. Also if hunting a large area, field or pipe line, Primos also makes a Plotwatcher type camera for about the same price. this camera only takes daylight pictures and requires a larg GB card but is an excellent tool in timing deer crossings in a large area. I hunt a pipe line and have seen deer crossing this year from 10 yards away from my stand to 250 yards away. It takes pictures every 5, 10, or 30 seconds and can be viewed as a time lapsed video with the software provided with the camera. Best hunting tool I have ever purchased. The only downfall is it only takes daylight pictures so a trail camera is used as well to determine what big boys are in the area running around at night.

trail cams

I have a love/hate relationship with my trail cams. I have 3 and 2 of them are moultrie and one Leaf River. The reason I hate the moultrie is because they are the game management type and it seems that my luck in picking stands is not very good. So far this year a deer passes in front of the stand that I'm not in, or I'm sitting at home and get a text showing a nice buck camped out in front of my stand. So you can see why I would hate them. You find out in about 2 minutes of a picture what is in front of the camera and it is hard to be home watching the deer walk while you are away. The leaf river camera does take better picture though.
