Thats awsome Cory.

I just saw those Grizztricks in an article about new broadheads.  Looks like you are having good luck with them.

Nice shooting! Where did you get the Lid Cam? It takes great video. Last year I bought the Epic Stealth Cam and it Sucks! The picture is so grainy you can barely see the video, especially in the woods. Plus, on yours you sound cool like DarthVader.

i believe Corey sells him at his shop.

Nice shot!!! I like the camera.  Might have to get one of those.

[xXx Archery]

yes we have them ..they have been going out as fast as I can get them in....you can get about 1 hour of record time with the SD card it comes with and 3 hours with a bigger card. its HD 720dpi. and the sound is really good.

You guys need to check out the Contour HD, GPS, etc. Great video quality and audio is good to. Seems to be a little clearer and more stable than the above vid. Looked at the Go Pro's to but the vid was good, audio was sub-par, and you always had to have it in it's clear case for mounting purposes and was not low profile, could be a problem in brushy areas. The Contour is 1080 or adjusts down to 720 and just a quick slide forward and your recording. Check them out, I definitely like mine, oh yes don't buy the Wild Game innovations unit it sucks, sent mine back immediately.

I feel the Lid cam is better
1.. it is 1/2 the cost
2.. it goes under the Bill of your hat ..I dont hunt with a helmet on...lol
3 ..NO Removable Lithium-Ion Battery
4 ..Charge via USB to computer or Contour chargers (sold separately)...lid cam comes with the chargers
5.. Battery Life: 2 - 2.5 hours...lid cam is 3 hrs of record and 8 hrs on stand by

The contour has multiple mounting placements that you can use, you don't need a helmet, bought mine off ebay for 210.00 that's only 60.00 more than the lid, not twice as much as stated. I use a head band which seems to be a more stable picture. I used one on the bill of my hat (Wild Game Innovations), way to much bounce and unstable. The Contour Charges with a usb or you can get a package with a alternative car/house charger with another battery and the contours can now link up with blue tooth and send vid's directly to your PC's or friends, etc for viewing. Didn't know there was something wrong with a Removable Lithium Batteries?  Contour has the same Battery life as the lid as far as the testing has proved, it all depends on what setting you are recording with, on the battery life. And that goes with any camera.  Not saying that the Lid Cam isn't a good product, but just what I have found with testing all these products. I can see why your sold on the Lid because you are selling the product and of course you will be promoting the product for profit, and can't blame you for promoting to make money too, that's why your in business. Just letting other people know that there are other products out there and they can do the research for themselves, and no I don't sell Contour's or have any affiliation with any of their products!

A friend of mine bought a lid cam. Im anxious to see how it works.

[bullcanyon]

I'm sure the contour is a better camera but for the price its hard not to try out  a lid cam.

And if we are going to bring up price differences. Lets be fair. I ordered the lid for $100 less than you got your contour;)

I am interested in seeing how your camera works out for you.

Good shooting Cory..and I like the Darth Vader heavy breathing nod..haha. Can you control the microphone? I dont want anyone hearing what I have to say when I blow one off the target..

[xXx Archery]

lol no on the mic...lol I'm getting old...I think the lid cam is still better for HUNTING....it was built for the hunter...and i still think its the best for the cost ...I'm sure the gopro's are nice for riding your bike, snowboarding and things
good luck hunting everyone and be safe....
