    Here are a few from my last camera check. I'm getting more and more turkeys, the most I've ever had.

    I think this might be a decent buck but I can't tell for sure.

    That first buck looks like he should have a bigger rack, he's a bruiser.

    That seems to be a trait in that area. We have killed several there that went over 300lbs.

    There is simply nothing else like a Reconyx. Unless you have owned one, you really can't understand how superior they are to all other cameras. If I could afford 10 of them thats all I would own.

    which model is it i would like to check out some reviews.
    from what i see here pics are so -so and can see the ir flash in the deers eyes

    maybe you could send me yours and i could run some test on it and get on board the recony x train.

    I will run it side by side my fav cam and see what i am missing.

    It is the RC55 As far as sending it anywhere, I think I'll pass for now. It really isn't the pic quality that separates it from everyone else, although I think the daylight pics are very good. Check out this link and see the difference in coverage area. You add to that the fastest trigger speed available, their outstanding customer service and you will see why their is a Reconyx train to ride in the first place.

    I think those pictures are of the same buck(?).
    As far as the pictures the new (HC) Reconyx cameras are very good on everything. The pictures quality is much improved from the RM and RC lines, even though I thought those were good. I have 2 HC 500s and love them. There is no comparing a Reconyx to any other manufacturer.

    Well not in price anyway, but in the end we both have a pic of a deer and some cams can do it for 1/3 of the price so for me there is a lot to compare.

    I think i know how it would feel when the 500.00 cam grows legs and walks off and makes my arse pucker just thinking about it.

    Not throwing rocks here but my 119.00 cams will do anything yours will and i can get alot more for my hunting dollars. the x6c wildgame sold right here on this site.

    No you didn't miss it. The RC55 is the model that preceeded the current models which have been out for about a year. Pretty much the same specs apply though. If you are trying to rattle my cage, which I think you are, I really don't rattle very easily. I would never try to "convert" you to anything but Christ. I have always said if you are happy with the equipment you are using, that's great! The idea is to have fun and enjoy the sport. I own several other brands of cameras as well so I think I'm in a good position to compare how they work. Actually, the camera you mention, the WGI X6C, is one I'm considering for my next purchase. As far as my original comments about the Reconyx, I was just answering a question put to me by another poster.

    Blessings.....Pastorjim

    was not my intent but you can have your opinion thats fine,Having a good since of humor get's me thru the day.

    as for religion and the forms here, i can do without it. except in the water cooler area were i think it is allowed.

    You sure like to knock down these Reconyx camera's quite often. Why?

    Just as people know a 500.00 bow can do the same job as a 1200.00 bow will
    same for deer cams,people dont have to think they need to spent 600.00 for a deer cam when a 120.00 cam will do the same job. It's still just a pic of a deer after all.


    Thats why there is a whole homebrew market trend starting, people are going to make the cam makers earn there money for being the best not just saying there the best.
    That was a cuddie slam right there.:poke: of course that is my own opinion:D
