    Although I am not new to bowhunting, I am new to this site and also having trail cameras. Got some cheap ones for Christmas last year so I decided to try them out. Here are a few pics I have gotten so far, also I am looking into a new camera what are your opinions on what is the best for the money? Thanks!

    Welcome aboard, nice pictures!

    Covert cameras, check them out. You can look through the trail cam section and see lots of pictures from coverts.

    Welcome!

    Coverts in my opinion destroy cuddebacks. The picture quality on Coverts is outstanding. I just recently picked one up for myself. I've never used Cuddebacks but I've talked to quite a few people who had issues with them that were not resolved by the company. Covert on the other hand has excellent customer service according to some people on here.

    I tend to buy cheaper cameras, I just purchased a variety of stealth cams. So far the are Okkkkay. But nothing like my friends Moultrie M-880. I see a lot of people on the forums post cam pics from Coverts. Seems like a quality camera. How ever I did find this web page helpful when it comes to Trail Camera reviews.

    Welcome! Thanks for sharing! I run Covert cams and I'm very happy with their performance. Great picture quality and battery life just to name a couple.

    Has to be a nice feeling getting buck pics by your ladder stand :). I have no experience with Covert, but the pics on here all look great. I'm not one to bash a product, but I'll just say that I'll never buy another Cuddeback. I'm looking at cameras now as I'm down to one camera that works. Covert will get serious consideration from me.

    welcome to the addiction! it wont take long for you to be checking the calendar and counting down the days until your next camera check!

    you have some awesome bucks there. good luck this year. keep us updated with pics.

    My advice is to wait several weeks between camera checks, that way the deer are not being pressured. (if i could only use my own advice) and keep your camera near (or on) a foot plot or mineral site near your stand/blind. Also take into consideration the laws of your state, dont do anything illegal
