more Bushnell TC pictures

I've had my Bushnell Trophy Cam for just over a week. I checked it last Saturday and then again today. 596 pictures taken with very few not having animals in them. Battery life so far is excellent as we ahve had 10 or colder high temps for about four days now. Batteries show full life yet. Anyway here are a few of the bucks I got on camera. Just set up on a trail with no food or mineral to make the deer stop.

nice pics....glad you posted. I am trying to decide between this camera and a cuddeback

So far the only thing I don't like about this camera is the strap to fasten the camera to the tree. I think I'm going to use a ratchet strap the next time I go out to change the memory cards. It has extremely fast recovery time (you can program it to reset at one second on up to 60 minutes) You can set it to take a burst of 2 or 3 but I would stay away from that as the second picture at night isn't as good as the first. Plus you can just set the reset to 5 seconds or 10 seconds and catch pretty much everything that you could with a three picture burst. I'm especially impressed with the battery life so far, but we had a low of -20 last night so we'll see how good the batteries are when I go out next weekend to check it. I personally would go with the Bushnell, but I am a little biased now that I'm enjoying this camera. We'll see what I think in a year.

Looks like you had several different Bucks walking down that trail....and the trigger speed was very fast to catch them that early in the frame!

Go w/ the Bushnell. I have heard way to many bad stories about the Cuddeback.

125py, I've had the trophy cam for around 6 weeks now. I am very satisfied with it. I have two other hunting buddies that are using them too and they were the ones that pushed me towards buying it. Everyone has a camera that they love but I would certainly recommend the bushnell.

I just pulled mine from the field. I am impressed so far. I need to pull the camera a little further away from the spot.

bandgod 01-09-2010 03:51 AM

Thanks for sharing remnard, I'll be pulling my camera (or at least checking to see how much battery is left) tomorrow probably. I don't expect to have any battery power left as we have had -10 or colder nights several times since last weekend. We'll see though!! If it still has battery life I'll keep it out and just swap the cards. I'm testing to see how long I can keep it out on one set of batteries in miserable conditions.

try the camlok box just lag bolt it to the tree adds some security and protection and much easier than dealing with the strap.
id be very careful with a ratchet strap may break the strap loops
if not careful especially if they are cold

Remnard 01-09-2010 01:25 PM

I put it back out today on a different trail. I put it in video mode this time. I put some old meat in front of it to try and get some video of coyotes in the area. I want to pop one of them so bad, I can taste it!

It only took 60 pictures when it was out there for the week, So I hope the batteries are still good enough.I'll pull it again friday and see what I've got.

bandgod 01-10-2010 02:51 AM

I don't think coyote would taste very good, but if that's what you like to eat! I just checked the cam yesterday and was expecting dead batteries but they still showed 2/3 good so I just moved the camera and swapped out the card. First full week in the woods and the camera had 596 pictures. This last week I changed the setting so it wouldn't shoot in burst mode and had 556. I'm impressed by the trigger speed, battery life and overall quality of pictures I'm getting. I'll post another thread with this last weeks pictures.
