Title: Bucks this time
Post by: M_ray on July 27, 2008, 01:37:56 AM: So I planned to check this again in a few day's but I couldn't wait! Ridgerunner stopped by to say hi today and we started talking about the trail camera so right after he left I had to check it ... and whadaya know! At first I thought it was the same buck but then a closer look proved the third pic is a 3x2. The first two pics a 2x2 is the same buck I walked up on bedded while I was trying to find a place to set the camera last Tuesday afternoon.

The 2x2 looks a little heaveir too! Sorry I may have to reposition it too, I have it pointed East and it looks like the sunrise fuzzes the pic quite a bit.

Face it North or South. If you have a Bear Safe box or some kind of security box around the camera the flash is bouncing off it and back into the camera lens. Just put a thin strip of weatherseal around the outside of the flash and that will cure the problem. Good Luck

Slider, Yep and you may have missed this quote at the bottom! I know I am going to have to reposition it but ultimately I want it in a totally different area so I'm just messing around with it here. This thing is litterally 150 yards from my house, so I'm not sure I'm gonna invest a bunch of time with this spot, but I do however want to make my mistakes here so I can get it right the first time when I pick my final spot! Thanks for the advise :)
