So my friend and i head out to the land i hunt on and i personally was really excited to see what i got on the camera. and it said six pics so i was pretty happy about that at least something.I open up the camera and i get three pics of a doe.....i guess its not as bad as it could have been just a lil discouraging tho...i didnt bother posting the pics
You know how many pics of does I have? Majority thats for sure. The best thing about it is you never really know what you will have until you load them. Good start guys, look forward to seeing more.
Mnbowhunter, put your camera over your mineral site when you establish one...You should have a lot more pics when they start hitting your minerals.
Nows the time to do the minerals. Mnbowhunter things start out slow with cameras. But, the beauty is you never know how many pics you are going to have until you check it.
Yeah when i first got a camera, its was a 35 mm one and i bet i went through 3-4 rolls of developed pictures before i got a buck. As you use it more, you will figure out the places to put them that are just better than other spots. Good luck.
okay thanks guys and i plan on checking it again in about a week. I know what you mean by the thrill of checking the camera to see what you have when the camera shows it took pictures it is really exciting. ill keep you guys posted on what happens next. thanks alot
Well I think you learned a good lesson then. A game camera is a great tool. Not knowing how long you've had it in the woods but assuming maybe a week...then you know that you need to move your game camera. I think the number one problem with game cameras is that many don't use them correctly and over scent their area by checking their camera too much. I check my camera once every 4-6 weeks. I have the privilege, however, to know where the deer are.
