Nope, to damn many of them. I don't need to worry about a shortage of meat during all this bs.

Good place to have a suppressed 300BO in the truck. Take out a few.

A drum fed 12-guage full of buck shot would be better.

Both of you are thinking small...

 

[AlienXtx]

I would if I could. Just stick them where they cross threw the fence.

You need to be 6ft from that turkey

I have a friend who's grandmother is in her late 80's. She lives out in the stix in Pennsylvania.. anyhow she has gone on a Turkey hunt and shot a turkey for Thanksgiving every year for the past 65 years or so. Pretty cool.

Before I jump down the rabbit hole anyone got good personal experience with newer trail cameras? Looking at one now w/wifi & bluetooth Stealth Cam FLX Trail Camera - Bluetooth & WiFi Enabled.

I do not want any cellular/subscription based camera for multiple reasons - rather go low tech SD card only before I do that. I started by just looking for good SD based system with ok HD video & good pics when I ran across a wifi camera. Normally I'd not think wifi, but after pricing (2) 300' rolls of ground rated cat 5 cable + all the labor required trenching for a POE camera I'm looking into trail cams because they would also kick ass for camping trips & for when I get some land.

Never had good luck with expensive trail cameras. I've bought several $150+ cameras and they've all been absolute garbage. I buy as cheap as possible now and they seem to last just as long or longer than the high dollar ones. YMMV.

 

[Oswego]

Thats the stuff I want to know for sure. Any specific brands that seem to hold up for you better than others or is it a total crap shoot?

 

[Oswego]

BTW - thinking of housing them in "bird houses" to keep them on the DL so weather shouldn't be a huge issue

Primos and Wildgame Innovations are the two that we've had the most success with. Both in the $50-60 range at Academy.

Yes, we use spy point, we buy them on sale ~ $79 16mb to 32mb cameras, its not the cheapest and not the most expensive either, they are decent cameras, not best, and not the crappiest.
I have a link for external power plug that works with the cameras, but apparently Amazon change up the app, I can’t find my wish lists.

Yeah and Midway just has a big sale on trail cams, they had some of the Spypoints on there cheap.

3 weeks ago, oh well.
