Don,
Those are some great deer.
PJ,
Over 200 is unreal. I wouldn't be able to sleep.
Don and PJ thanks for the hunt offer. I might have to talk to you guys about it. Just got a great buck on trail camera that I haven't seen all year. From what I can see he has to be over 140.

Ryan,
Cabelas just had the stealth I540IR on sale for $99. Takes great pictures but the trigger speed is a little slow ( over 2 sec) . I have 2. The bushnell trophy cam is nice. A 1 sec trigger speed, the pictures are not as nice as the I540IR but the battery life is great and you can set them up on trails with that fast trigger speed. They are around $200. I like the bushnells because they are small and you definitely spend less on batteries.
Check this buck out he's a hog. Great rack and huge body.

Ryan,
I'vn been pretty happy with an $80 camera (on sale at BPS). WildGame Innovations IR4. The main problem with these is that the plastic tabs that hold the batteries in place break, probably from heating up in the sun. I fixed that problem by reinforcing them. Also, this year I added 6V battery to them so I don't have to put the C-cell batteries in them and they last all summer long. They also take video if you want. For some reason I can't access my computer at home right now, but here are a few shots from last year. I'll see if I can find the link to a video I posted and you can look at a sample video.

I like the first pic. Seems like the buck is keeping an eye on the ground blind.
