Default game cameras + turkey hunting....

is it wise, possible, or even helpful, to use game cameras for turkey scouting? Would it work the same as deer hunting? I guess it would, i just never heard of it....also, do you guys wear full camo, part camo or no camo when scouting for turkeys...i would think full camo but im not sure...thanks for the help fellas.

I have found that using game cameras are very helpful. helps you track the times that they come around in your hunting area. works great when hunting deer and turkeys, www.bowhuntgear.com has some great deals on game cameras. I personaly use full camo when i scout and hunt

I use several game cameras to scout also. Have gotten some great pics of toms and hens.

I have gotten pictures of hens around my deer feeder. They mostly hit the area to pick at the fallen corn. Seems they do this either first thing in the morining or between 12:30 -2 PM. I havn't seen any gobblers near the feeder though. Yesterday I had a day picture of 2 deer and a hen. Overall, I would not rely on a cam to scout for turkey like I do for deer.

I use my cameras, esp. in the late season when the Toms are going to the same places every day to look for hens. I posted a few pictures awhile back, if I can find one I'll post it here.
