1. What SD card do you use?
I think a 2G is enough, at Waly World for $8

2 . Can I view SD card on my Iphone 5?
Yes, but you have to have the adapter

3.  Height off the ground?
Safer if its high up, less chance it gets stolen

4.  Would it be better to take lap top into trail cams to check pics?
Get two SD cards for each cam and just exchange them 

5. Use of feed? I bought corn for bait?
Salt lick and grain, I think the elk will be more interested in salt than grain.

6  any other suggestions?
Share your pics,  :chuckle: :chuckle:
U can get an 8g for like 12.99 at office depot i bought 4 not too long ago...

 :tup: That's a great deal

Inbox is cleared up!  Thanks

8GB on sale now at office max? 6 bucks.  Regular 20 bucks.  I know I just bought 4 of them
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

Get a trail cam that takes AA batteries. For some reaons I've had far better luck with battery life than cameras with C or D batteries. although you'd think it'd be the opposite my experience it isnot.

I have had that same experience.

I put most of my cams about waist to chest height depending on terrain. For bait i use trace mineral salt with selenium in the spring and summer months, and sweet cob, apples, alfalfa and corn after the summer. Sd cards I use 4gb or better. Good luck and don't get to addicted to cams :)

for your height off the ground question, watch this.  also higher up gives better field of view which prevents the blurry photos of animamsl moving by close to the camera too fast.  and im glad everybody has said they use sd cards around 8 gigs or less, ive been spending $30 a pop on the 32g cards, knowing its probably overkill, just not being sure  how many pics cards can hold.  ill start buying 8gig cards now and saving some money.  Trail Cameras: What You've Been Missing - Reality Deer Management Ep. 8

Check this out for approximate storage capacity:



I believe most cameras' image storage size is slightly different, but a chart like that will give you a good ballpark idea of capacity. 

I too have always gone overboard with card size.  Nothing worse than missing out on pictures because of dead batteries or a full memory card.  I usually run 4 GB cards on the cameras close to home and 16's on the ones I deploy when the snow melts and check right before hunting season.

I always just use a 50lb block of salt in front of my  cams. Sometimes i dump a jug of stump licker on a rotten stump with the salt block next to it. I dig a hole and bury the block about halfway because they like to roll them around. After they thin the apples in the orchards i always stop and grab about 60lbs off the ground on my way to check cams and re bait. The elk love the apple/salt combo.

oh wow that helps a lot.  i have 4 cameras with 4 32g cards right now.  been planning on buying second cards for them, and now that doesnt seem like its going to be so expensive, which is really good cause i just bought 3 more cameras.  didnt want to buy 10 32 gig cards.  that chart just saved me a bunch of money, thanks
