Hunting TrailCam Photos

Ok, So this is the first year I decided to use one of the new digital motion detection cameras. As our readers know I went up last Friday to set up the camera over one of my Salt Licks. I read all the instructions and had the camera ready to go. When I was looking to place the camera Friday I had found a tree that I thought was perfect. I ended up placing the camera on the tree about 15 yards from my salt lick. I tested it by walking in front of it and it snapped a photo. Today I went to see what photos I were on the camera and swap out the memory card. As I was heading down the hill I spooked something off of my Salt Lick, I was excited. When I got down to the camera it only had 2 photos on it. I was worried that I hadn’t set it up right. So I checked it by walking in front again and it took another photo. Now I was just frustrated, I checked all around the Salt lick and it looked as if it was getting some action, and I know that I spooked something as I was coming down the hill. What I discovered was I had the camera too high it wasn’t pointing in the right direction. So I removed the camera and placed it closer to the trail about 5 yards from my salt lick. I wont make it back up there until next Thursday two days before the hunt. Hopefully its loaded with photos. Like I said this is my first year getting into the technology and I’m learning some lessons as I go. The good thing is I know the deer are in there no matter what that camera says.
