I am using wildgame innovations and have pretty good luck with. I got 11 of them right now.

I have 6 from Wild game innovation, and have had great success. Customer service is outstanding also. I had one literally melt butteries inside and the replace without and hassle.
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me

I may not have alot but what I have I got honest.....

I'd rather be hated for what I am then be loved for what I'm not

Is it me, or are people getting dumber

I have 6  of the lights out models. And 5 of the blade 6's. The picture quality on the lights out are better but they are also more expensive. But I have no issues with the blade's quality

I found this thread to be a good read...
I bought one trail cam earlier, Browning Strike Force HDMP.  And I was given as a gift a Moultrie A2 series.  Anybody have experience with these trail cams?  I'm looking to set them up here in a couple weeks.

Some great reviews, I need to start shopping on E Bay.

How high do you guys hang them?
Do you take a ladder or some other way to get them out of someones reach?

Do they have a flash?
It would seam if it flashed it would stick out like a sore thump.

I bring a ladder.  They don't have to be too far up, just out of reach/line of sight.  You can't safeguard unattended gear from everyone but most won't screw with it if they have to come back with equipment.

Very few cameras have a white flash.  Most have red glow infrared illuminators that are visible to the naked eye.  My Bushnell cameras have a dull red glow that is not very noticeable unless you're looking at the camera when it fires.  I have a few Primos 02 models that glow bright red.  They are easy to pick out when they trigger in low/no light.  The Primos cameras are awful while taking still photos at night, the video is usable with a white glow washout the first seconds of the video.  Too much IR flash for the camera.

Cruising chasingame.com and found this video-

I'm not familiar with the Primos Workhorse but the reaction of that coyote when he looks at the camera is noteworthy!
