Moultrie D40 is pretty good for the Price
 
I bought a couple of Moultrie D40s new for $80 each. They have worked well. The only complaintI have is, the time seems to get off and needs to be reset once every week or so. The battery life was good too, I have gotten thousands of shots since August on these cameras.

Is there a small battery on the inside of your Moultrie that you need to replace?My 4.1 Moultrie has an inner battery that keeps the correct time when you remove the larger battery to charge it up.

i have to agree,it is a good cam for the money !
i don't care for the D-cell setup but it does have an external power port for adding an external rechargeable battery.
you can order the cord for it from MOULTRIE.

if you want to see pics from mine,i have some posted
under "DK's yote cam" in the trail cam threads on this site.

I hope this works, I just uploaded 3 pics from the D40 I put out. I put it out on the 12th of March and today I went and checked it and it still says 40% power. It took 1850 pics, put some cattle bumped it and it twisted into the cedar tree so about 1830 pics are birds in the trees or just the wind blowing the cedar branch in front of the lense. This is the first time I have ever used a trailcam. Kind of neat.

I've got the D40 and like it. I paid 90 at Wal-Mart a couple weeks ago. My old 35mm trailcam was worn out and breaking me in film.

Jake, where are you hunting at, that kinda looke like west Texas, I hunt in Kerr county. I love the hill country....

RE: Moultrie D40 is pretty good for the Price
 
Its about 8 miles west of Medina, out 337. I have not had the ability to hunt Kerr County, tons of Axis there from what I have seen.

TexasBowHunter 03-23-2008 06:02 PM

RE: Moultrie D40 is pretty good for the Price
 
There are some axis, fallow, sika, audad, stag and a few elk. The sika are running crazy, I will be back in the states mid April and gonna go do some turkey hunting and hopefully get a sika or two. I absolutely love the rock, cedars, hills and all the different game, it's a bowhunting heaven. You guys have any exotics???

JakeinTX 03-23-2008 06:23 PM

RE: Moultrie D40 is pretty good for the Price
 
The people that run the lease say that there is some exotics there, I saw one small axis taken that I would have passed on to let it grow up. They say some Mouflon and Aoudad are there. It is low fence surrounded by all those high fences. All I have taken off of their is a hog. This will be my only year on the lease if I don't see some other items. It was $1200 for the year, cheap if I took more than a hog, but very expensive pig if thats all I get.

Thats a good pig....Give it another year, last year was tough everywhere in Texas, too much rain.....That is a good price, our ranch is the same price---low fence, no electricity but we do have water on the ranch.I got on this place last year and didn't shoot anything except does anda longhorn spike but I only hunted a couple times(too much work) The reason Igot on it wasfor my daughter, she loves to hunt and there we are always seeing animals. Good luck with it....
