Camera Stabilizer
Hey everyone...glad to be back. Got some great camera pics I will be posting soon. My question is, has anyone ever used the video camera mount that goes where your stabilizer should be for in order to video a hunt when alone?? Just curious. I have a 2-man ladder for when I am with someone, but was looking at this for when alone. Thanks.

RE: Camera Stabilizer
I have both and the one that mounts on your bow is good until you get ready to shoot. Then when you shoot the bow you lose everything. The one that mounts on the tree is good except that you have to make sure that it is pointed in the right spot when the deer comes by. if you have a camera that has auto focus on it that can be a pain as well. It will try to focus on every bush in the way and leave everything else out of focus.

SW I H is right, the stabilizer mounts are okay for footage leading up to the shot but you'll never get the shot because of bow jump and if you try to hold too steady your executing poor form...it's best to get a tree mounted camera unless you don't want the actual shot on film...that's the most important piece of footage.

Bets bet if you want good pics... Hang stand pairs... Hunt with a friend and take turns w/ the camera. It is just exciting to be behind the camera as it is to be the shooter. you learn alot about the deer as well while in the stand. Bust just remember take your bow also as early season bucks tend to move together. You may just get the shot of a lifetime when you least expect it.
