Default Bow Camera mounts

Has anyone ever used or know anyone that has used a bow video camera mount. I found a site on the net that has these. I was wondering what the cons were on these mounts. Seems to me like the shock of the bow on the shot would be awfully hard on the camera. I' m sure you would have to either practice with the camera on or make a practice dummy out of wood or something that would be similar in weight to the camera on the end of the mount in order to be efficient while in a real hunting situation. I' m also sure alot of noise would be added to the set up with a camera mounted on the bow. The idea of getting my hunts on tapes really intrigues me. I have a tree style camera mount and am to really happy with the hassle it provides. Any thoughts or actual experience with these would be appreciated. The site I found these mounts on is http://www.videoventures.tvheaven.com/home1.html
Thanks.

I saw an add the other day for a camara that was mounted on the side of a guys' hunting cap--like to hear about that also.I think the bow camara' s will be improved greatly in the next year or two--everything gets modified for the better after the geberal idea is thrown out for the public to but/try.

There is a mount called cambow i believe, it mounts in the stabilizer hole.

The major problem I see is that as soon as your arrow is released, your bow is going to move so much you wont be able to see a clear picture of the impact. I have seen them on shotguns, but you can hold your aim after the shot. I dont know how you would keep your bow that still after the release.
