    Love the hat but those cans stick out like a sore thumb. Need to drink some Busch beer!

    It is a slick attachment and will likely have better quality than some of the previous bow cams.

    I bet its tough to answer the phone when someone calls. Would like to look up in a tree and see a guy with his bow to his ear LOL

    In all seriousness how does it handle vibration while shooting does it shake or can you see th POI?

    I wish Colorado would change some of its laws with bow hunting, we cant have any lights, or electronics on our bows. We cant even use Luminox on our arrows which I don't think gives the hunter an advantage over the deer just allows us to easier see our arrow.

    ok ok ok
    it's a garmin phone and I glued a plastic disk to my sight and put the car mount for the phone on the disk.
    The car mount has a suction coup and lock on it and it seems to hold reall good. As far as vibration goes it makes no extra noise while I shoot. The video gets shacky but I think thats to be expected with and mounted camera.
    I am going to try to film with it this weekend and I'll post the video so you can see if it works or not.
    and for raceway it's about the only thing that works on this dam phone lmao

    I will post a link to it after I get it uploaded later.

    ok I fixed the video so you can view it.
    I also got a video of the yearling I shot yesterday would have been better if the sun wasnt blurring it but if you look close you can see them and hear the shot
