Default homemade camtrakker pic



I have a couple of more nice ones I will scan tonight and add. $125 investment, not too difficult to build either. This thing will be sweet come this summer and fall when the bucks have their horns. I know a few scrape lines that nocturnal bucks use and can't wait to set this thing up on them !

Stealthy,

Congrats on the homebrew cam. Ihave about 8 of them right now.

Just a warning on seeing that nocturnal buck at the scrape....... I have been there and done that. It is nice to see the big buck, (I have pics of a 10 point at a scrape), but disheartening, since you will probably not see him during the day.

Hey Stealthy, congrats on an obviously successful project!

I've thought about doing one of those myself; did you build the one off of Jesse's Hunting Page?

S-cat, very good. Did you use Jesse's Hunting Page?
If so what camera did you use. Im really impressed with the depth of the flash and field of focus.

I used Jesses's site to build mine. All my parts are the Radio Shack parts, and the camera is the Owl PF Date camera.

heres another, check out the two rabbits ! The pictures are much better than my scanner can show them too. I was very happy with the quality of most of them.

Nice pics.
I made my own cam last spring, I got a lot of nice pics from it. my setup was pretty simple owl pf date, RS Sensor, 5vdc reed relay, no timers or anything like that, all in a mititary ammo can. unfortunatly Mine got stolen about a month ago,
I just finished making a new one a few days ago though, The nice thing about them is you can Make 4 of em for the price One of the store bought ones.

Just be sure you keep it chained up tight and out of sight!
