go pro coyote hunt?

[demontang]

Well I've finally got a go pro trying to figure out the best set up to film some coyote calling. Mount it on my ar or put it on a tripod?

[CAMPMEAT]

I'd put it on a tripod...

[Boss .300 winmag]

Try both, gun mount would ensure to get video of every shot. Tripod may not always be inline with yotes approach.

[demontang]

Going to get a mount for the scope an see how it goes. Was thinking it might be a little motion sickness form it we will see I guess.

[Boss .300 winmag]

You won't be moving the weapon that fast to shoot yotes, so no dizziness. 

[NW-GSP]

Forehead mount would be what I would recommend. Then its always looking where you are looking.

[biggfish]

Don't scope mount if you have a real high power rifle. My .270 win. makes some terrible jump. In all honesty you're not going to get much unless they get up close and personal, go pro and other action cams just have too wide an angle. Mounted on a shot gun if you're shooting within a 15 yds should get some great footage. Try watching Solo Hunter it might give you some ideas as to how to use your camera, and if you've got a video camera or a dslr with video how to incorporate the two for some cool clips. Not saying you won't get anything worthwhile with just a go pro, just saying don't get your hopes up too high I've been disappointed myself. But very fun to play with.

The gopro will be fine, It wont be as great as a point and shoot zoom camera but it will work. Just change the settings from Wide to narrow. It reduces it and acts like a built in zoom, It focuses on [  ]    instead of [             ] So you have a narrow fov. What gopro are you using?

[demontang]

Got the hero 3 silver. Im hopping to get some dogs in close and I'm using a 223.

[bearmanric]

Want to get one. would you be able to here my calling. Rick

[NW-GSP]

Want to get one. would you be able to here my calling. Rick

Yes it would definitely pick up the calling.

[bearmanric]

Sweet. Rick

[demontang]

Well might try and get out tomorrow and see how this will work.

[bearmanric]

What I use it's at Walmart.

[bearmanric]

Fits on scope.

[bearmanric]

Steayest way to film three legged bogpod.. when I used shooting sticks moved a lot not steady. Rick

The gopro I borrow has a flashing light when its on.  If yours does makes sure to put a piece of tape over that to keep you from being busted.

[HardLoadHunter]

try turning off the wide angle, other wise a coyote at 30 yds will look like its 100 yds away. good luck make sure you post the video!!

[demontang]

Well haven't made it out yet. Maybe I can get away Friday and try this thing out.

You can just shut it off in options. Also you can shut off the sounds. When I get home If i remember Ill take a photo of how my gopro is set up for hunting.
Painted camo.
Waterproof case.
Hole drilled in the side with external mic for higher quality sound.
So making it not waterproof but water resistant. Good enough if Im walking around in the rain.
