First pics with new D40 after 6 days in

[brianb231]

Well Guys,

I am officially hooked on this trailcam thing. I bought the Moultrie D40 a few weeks ago just to get started in this. I put the camera out last weekend and went out to check it after only 6 days. When I checked it it still said it had 90% battery life and there was 103 pics taken in those 6 days. ALL elk every day of the week. I also noticed what looked to be slobber near the bottom of the camera on the front. Low and behold about 4 different Elk came up to the camera and basically licked that darn thing and moved it around with their nose!! I foud that was a little bit surprising.  I posted a few. I left it out there for a few more weeks to see what else may come through. This was just a trail that I have seen Elk on before. I did not use any baits as of yet.

Anyways, way cool....now I want another camera!

I have hd the same problem with elk licking and rubbing on my cams. I had them nock it out out of one tree and kicked it and rubbed it around. It was 12' from the tree I left it in. Made for some crazy shots. I had to set my cams about 6' up to keep them from screwing with them so much.

Trail cams are fun I started with 2 and now have 3 and my buddy has 2. I would have about 10 but don't have the moola for them or the batteries. Buying batteries are like diapers!!!

I'd have to say being an owner of the D40 and a New bushnell trophy cam, that the bushnell is far better than the d40 and is less than half the size of the moultrie.  better pics lighter cam.  I will be getting another one maybe two.  I'd buy a trophy cam from bushnell before the moultrie. just my  :twocents .  There are a couple of pics from it on this page under Big bull and buck.  Oh ya and the batteries, 8 lith.batt.s last a yr. in the field.  My batt. is at 100% after about a 1000 pics.  If you want any info on it pm me for specifics
