Just set up my first trail camera
« on: August 16, 2009, 09:37:10 AM »
Bought a $99 dollar bushnell and have been putting some salt and corn out in a spot and the area is completely torn up. I think its mostly elk but hoping a buck is hitting it. Just hung up my camera yesterday to see whats coming in. Gonna let it soak this week and go check it next weekend. probably have 400 pictures of cows and calves.
