Trail Cam Question

Hey Guys, I want to buy a trail cam and can't decide which one to buy. There's so many different ones to pick from. I've seen StealthCams in the stores around here. Also Cuddeback, but I've heard they're a waste of money. I don't want to spend over $200 for the cam, SD card, bracket and whatever else may be needed. Do any of you guys use them and would you recommend one brand over another? I'd appreciate any suggestions or advice you may have.

They take video and really good pictures, I like the quick triggers on them because I like getting the pictures of the racks, not the rears, like we had neumerous times with stealth cam, We have taken over 5,000 pics and have only needed to replace the batteries once a year. Never had any problems.; ▶ Reply to This

Only draw back is that they are easily stolen if they are put in public places. So I would recommend making some cables to lock it on the tree rather than the bungees that it comes with.; ▶ Reply to This
