That is so jacked up..It almost like a guy has to have two, so one camera can constantly be watching the other one..

I feel for ya brother..I have phuckin thieves they should be shot on site with no chance for excuses for their behavior..

I lost 1800.00 buck worth of stuff out of my truck 4 days before deer hunting season THIS year, so i know the pain...God help them if we ever catch them.

I had a friend who was archery hunting last year and upon returning to camp for the morning, found that someone had stolen about 1000.00 in camp gear.

But I have had a few pictures (in holes that I wouldn't expect anyone else to be, that people passed by (looking into my camera) and left them alone. But you have to padlock them, and screw em to a tree!
