RE: camera flash!
 
I've got HUNDREDS of trail cam photos archived that I can post if anyone would like to see them. they're not MONSTERS......but they ARE "mature" deer, and they're nice deer in my woods.

Do they spook at the flash? Sometimes.....but deer will spook at a squirrel scratching.

In "MY" experiences......do they return? Like I said....I have hundreds of images supporting this. Yes. They DO tolerate the flash.

Of the literal thousands of pictures that we took last year we have exactly 0 of deer running from the flash or even seeming like they noticed it. I am not disputing that it can happen. It just hasn't happened to me... yet.

Ithink you most likely change therearea by checking the camera and leaving your scent......
I agree, if the deer smells your scent it will put him on edge already, then a big flash in his face...hes outta there

I said it yesterday.......but I think it's worth noting, here, now.

I practice "pretty good" scent control when I check my game cams. I wear rubber boots and ALWAYS wear latex gloves. "I" think this CAN'T "hurt"......and I'm capturing good images......so I guess it's working.

Yeah, i havent had any problems either, so why waste the money on an infared.

I might change my mind if i get a bunch of pictures of mature bucks rear-ends running off! [8D]
