Budget Trail Camera's

There are many trail camera's on the market.  Price ranges from $50-$600 or more for some Bushnell and Reconyx camera's.  The camera's I have are more on the cheap side $50-$80.  I have a Wildgame Innovations Axe 2, and a Stealth Cam.  They are both decent camera's for the price.

  • The Wildgame: Has a little easier setting, as it has a screen that you select settings.  The Axe 2 takes better pictures, as far as moving deer goes, and better pictures in general.  It also has a location setting on it so you know where the picture was taken (example: you have two food plots, you could say "FOOD1" for one spot and "FOOD2" for the next one, as it gives 4 letter spaces and 4 number spaces for postion).  
  • Stealth Cam: It has "quick settings" which includes video, and picture settings.   It also has a custom setting. It does not have a location setting as the one above.
I like both, but if I had to pick one, it would be the Wildgame Axe 2.  But both are good for getting into trail camera's.

BOOYAH Pad Crusher Jr.

Note: I forgot about this post as I was in the middle of writing it last summer but forgot, so, might as well finish it!

I spent the weekend with at my Aunt and Uncles as my parents were away for a couple days. They have a pond in their backyard, which is awesome!!  It has brim, bass, and catfish.  Not to mention annoying turtles.  But while we were there, we visited the local Bass Pro Shops.  I got a Primos Still Cottontail Predator Call, which I will test this summer.  I also purchased a BOOYAH Pad Crusher Jr., which is the main focus of this article.  The Pad Crusher Jr. did what it was supposed to do, act like a frog swimming on water.  It's only a couple dollars, and worth every penny.  I almost caught a bass in the limited time I fished with it, and the reason it didn't bite, I don't know.  Well, that is, except the bass was two feet away and I could see the thing looking at my lure.  But if something follows something like that, it's interested.  I'm definitely trying it again!


I can't wait to use it next time I fish!

Something New On Camera!

Since nothing is really going on right now, (except if your into turkey hunting or spring bass fishing, things are heating up) I thought I'd share some more pictures.  There's something new this time!

We now observe the wild little brother in natural habitat!

I'm gonna say that this is our by-now-famous Missy and fawns


Funny thing is, the place where I put the camera is right down the driveway.  I got multiple pictures, but just thought I'd show a couple.  My little brother, whom you see pictured, thought that it wouldn't take pictures of him because it was a deer camera.  I told him it's a motion detection system, and he said "but, I thought it was just a deer camera to take pictures of deer!"  Nope.
