    I was hoping to be a prostaffer for the cellular covert. Musta not made it. I want to try one since I live so far from my land. Will end up getting one in spring most likely. I have played with my new Bushnell, and it seems to be really nice taking pictures of me and the dog. Just gotta get it in the woods come turkey season.

    I have a bunch of wild game innovations and for the price of the cheaper ones, they arnt horrible. But, Im making the switch to covert. Quality is just so much better. I have issues with wildgame innovations, they are far from perfect, just put up with them because its what I have. They never seem to last more then 2 years, other then the higher end one I bought 3 years ago. Covert has better everything, trigger speed, distance, flash, tougher, all that. Im sold on them for sure, and will be stocking up asap.

    I got a black 60. I been in the trail cam world since 2005. This thing has great battery life, doesnt miss a thing, and fast trigger speed. Lots of set up options too. No spooking by the deer. I am waiting to see when the new coverts come out.

    (I sent in for prostaff position also :). )

    I also use a Trophy cam and had issues with it after 2 months in the woods. I sent it in to them and they replaced it with a brand new upgraded model within a week. I have had the new one out 4 months so far so good. I also use Covert cams. I have the CA 3.0 and a MP6. My 3.0 will not flash at night(since it was new)and my MP6 changes the video length time on its own. I know all I have to do is send them in and Pat will take care of me but I hate taking them out of the woods. Overall Covert is by far the best on the market especially the prices. They do strive to make a great trail camera not just get a piece of the booming market.

    Or you check it out here:

    http://forums.bowhunting.com/showthread.php?44744-2013-Scoutguard-Bolyguard-Selection-Guide

    Some facts:
    1. The famous 2009 Bushnell Trophycam is made by Boly Media;
    2. The famous 2011 Covert cams are made by Boly Media.
    When these brands switch suppliers, you know what is going to happen.

    Boly Media revolutionized the following things in Trail Camera:
    1. Sg550 revolutionzed the size and IR cameras;
    2. SG550M revolutionzed the mobile wireless cameras;
    3. SG560K revolutionzed Long Range together with Black IR cameras;
    4. SG860C revolutionzed Full Color Cameras (color video & pic at night);
    5. BG30L/BG500/MG982K revolutionized two-way communications;
    6. SG968K revolutioized Super Long Range (100ft X 60 degree) detection.

    So you know what to choose.

    Well, it is a policy of the company to do only honest business. Unless the policy is changed in the future, the company does not
    hire or pay any one to do commercial promotions or propaganda, only unpaid magzine interviews or TV shows.

    You have 79 posts. You stop by to drop a shameless plug then gone you bring nothing else to the forums. Honest business ??? I was a member here before I was hired on at DLC Covert and have numerous members here I also know personally and call friends and I plan to stick around and post pictures and be active in the forums. Again best of luck to ya !

    Fun fact . . When we switched from Boly to Uovision Warranty cameras dropped 50% Good call in my opinion

    Having been in electronic manufacturing, I can say I have seen a pattern. One contractor will be very good. For some time. Then, without warning, they will start having issues. When this happens, the OEM with the great customer service is the one you want. One repeated fact I have heard over and over is customer confidence in Covert's customer service. It certainly has caught my attention. I don't own any... but I will.

    Sugar Creek is known by many names on a lot of the forums. He goes by "Geographer" over on the QDMA forum. This sends up red flags everywhere for me. I am a member of over 30 of these forums and I am known as "FiremanJim" on all of them. All his stuff seems shady to say the least.

    I don't know if it is shady. Maybe just bad at marketing.
