Important Game Cam Information!
People are always posting questions about Game Cam's of all different models and brands, and rating them as well. There is 1 problem that runs between every model I've ever seen: They are all easy targets for thieves!
Someone posted this in response to my post about having my game camera stolen. I think this is such a great idea that it should be placed as a main post for people to see. The person who came up with the idea has recovered 2 game camera's or the same camera 2 times, I can't remember which. This is the idea (it won't prevent theft but it will help recovery):
Take the first shot on your game cam, before you set it out, of a piece of paper that says in big, readable letters: If this film is being developed by any other person other than INSERT YOUR NAME HERE then please call INSERT YOUR PHONE NUMBER HERE because this camera has been stolen.
One of the times the guy who had this idea had his camera stolen he got a call from Wal-Mart a few days later. He went up and explained the whole situation to the manager and got full cooperation. Had all the address info from the person that turned in the film and everything. But the guy came back to get them himself and he succesfuly recovered the cam.
What an ackward moment that had to have been for the person who stole... personaly I would have invited the cops to the little party! [>:]
P.S. I'd love to see some posts about someone recovering a camera in this way if it works for anyone! That would be cool![8D]
