What are some good simple to use trail cameras to take pictures.Not interested in cellular ones.

Check the Archives first

These little tacos invaders are decent, pretty easy to program too. If you can set the time and date on your phone you can use these pretty easy

Thanks I was actually looking at those the other day.Thought I would ask first.

No problem I'd just get one to play with first. I had a problem with this one when we got snow and really cold temps and thaw. Lil bit of condensation on the lens. Cleared up really quick when I brought it inside but might be a bit of an issue for you up there in Maine...but for the whole $30 Walmart wants for one don't see that harm in getting one just to try.
O and make sure you only use a 32gb SD card or smaller. Was trying to use a 64gb and was toobig for it to do anything. Probably help if I read the instructions lol !

That being said Jbyrd did mention that wild game I think , makes one about the same price with better quality

Neat.That wild game was the other one I was looking at for a little more money.If I remember right $60 something for two of them.

I dont know if it will work on a trail cam but my wife bought me some anti fog wipe for my glasses. They work.

… what you’re going to want to do is …. Find yourself some smoking hot deer sign … climb up directly in the middle of it … when the deer come through… bust one right square in the head with that camera

… the older heavier models work best

Lol......I'm planning on hunting an old area I used to hunt in that you now have to hike back into.Have not hunted it for years but shot my biggest buck out of there Gross scoring 190 and field dressed 257 pounds

Around here,,we take the pictures AFTER we kill the deer.

That’s a biggin Bruce

Lol.....same here but got to admit there's a few hunter friends of mine that are really killing some big bucks using the trail cameras.

They are a great scouting tool. Put em on good food source in late summer to see all the velvet bucks in the area. Then, move em to good scrapes and trails in early fall.

Cell cams are best so you don't have to return to check or swap SD cards. But, SD card pull-only cameras are OK. I have a dozen that all go on scrapes here in late September- early October. Slip in and check em weekly. I'm looking for a good buck...not any buck....and paying close attention to daylight movement patterns...ie which way did he approach from?...which way did he leave? How long did he stay at camera? What was he doing?

I currently have 5 cell cameras that I use to narrow down the patterns (daylight movement)....but when you see this..you need to be in that area next day or two and use the wind correctly.

Permanent/heavy stands are a no-go....useless actually. Get a Summit Viper or Goliath climber or a good HangOn and sticks.

No cell reception where my trail cameras are going.

Never killed or trapped anything with a trail camera they pull out every time or get away.

Got to have that trip gun set up better

And here I have been trying to use a rifle all these years.

Don't need it.

We can't use cameras for hunting here in Montana.

Nice buck 160user
