[QUOTE="Yoby, post: 215641, member: 631"] I have 4 bushnells and 1 spartan. Had 2 or 3 wild game inovations, and 4 huntens. I started with the later and after 2 or 3 yrs the huntens pretty much stopped taking pictures of anything but me or took pictures every 2 seconds until batteries were dead. gave the WGI cameras to my cousin so he could track deer in MN for shotgun/bow. Gave them to him due to the comparison to the bushnells. The Spartan I used during the rut to determine when it finally hit. and after that, it was my home monitoring unit as it would send me texts with the pictures of who ever pulled into the yard (around Christmas time I could make sure things didn't grow legs or when we had the house for sale). I don't usually put them out on where I bow hunt until July, but getting up to the inlaws is a feat so those go up when I get a chance. The only problem I have with putting them up too early is battery life. If you can't check on these cameras for a while 1) you don't know if a weed is triggering it (happened last year, 10k pics of a fricken weed) 2) when the batteries go dead (2 yrs ago they went dead 3 weeks before rifle season). I think they are a great tool to figure out travel on a piece of land (if you have enough) and if you track long enough trends from batchellor groups/does to general populations of the herd. Every year I wish I had more pictures or more information so I knew what and where to plan for the next year. Have fun [/QUOTE]
