    Looking for a good trail camera that is about 100 dollars. I dont want to spend to much just incase some lucky person walks upon mine and feels the need to test it out himself

    If you don't mind a clunk when it triggers, also customer service blows! took them over a week to call me back when I was having problems. Returned it to cabelas and got my money back.

    If you can find a DLC Covert mp6 for $125 jump on it. Coverts are my cam of choice.

    Save a little more $$$ and go Covert all the way...get the python lock as well, works great!

    I like my wildgame innovations a lot. Any model has been good to me.

    Make sure when you are figuring in price of the camera that you take battery life in to account. You can easily spend the amount of the camera just in batteries on some of the cameras out there.

    You would think!! I've been on other hunting sites and seen others post about the crumby c.s.

    On sportsmansguide they have a covert that is 90 bucks I believe but I think I would spend the extra for the mp6

    Covert is the way I'd go...the WGI W6Xs I have now have been good to me but I traded in 4 of em before I got 3 good ones. Seems from some of the posts I've seen elsewhere they have the same quality control issues again this year so it's a crapshoot if you'll get a good/working one or not(the C.S. is pretty good but having to wait a week or 2 for replacement means no cam in the woods doing what it should). Don't overlook Spypoint either - decent cams and good C.S. as well.
    BTW - Primos is now owned by Bushnell and they are both backed up/slow on thier C.S. and backordered replacement cams.

    It would be really hard to beat a Primos Truthcam for the price.
