Do you pull your cams in season??
« on: September 02, 2008, 10:46:16 PM »
When hunting seasons start, do you leave your cameras out, or do you take 'em home?

My cams are far enough off the road that I haven't really worried about them getting snatched, but with archery season about to be full swing, I'm wondering if I should risk leaving them out? I think most hunters wouldn't mess with them, but I don't trust everyone....  :dunno:

I pulled mine yesterday.  There were a few bow hunters in the area and I didn't want to lose it.  I may put it back later; hunters are all honest aren't they?

i really try to trust very little people, cause well not everyone on in honest and when they get the cahnges its game over or camera gone, many people are good people but i am sure many hunters could care less about other hunters.

Well hopefully mine are far enough off the road to be safe. Both are over a half mile from the road and involve either serious bush-whacking and a creek-crossing or a very steep hour climb. I might go move one tomorrow, but the other is far away in elk country, and I'd like to leave it out there for most of the rut, just to see what's around... Maybe I'll go check it next weekend. Hopefully they don't get jacked :)
