Don't Make These Top Five Trail Camera Mistakes

In this video, we address five of some of the most common trail camera mistakes folks make when using any type of trail camera.
1. Use Paracord to Hang Trail Cameras
2. Hang Trail Camera's 6-8 Feet off the Ground
3. Hang Your Camera in the Correct Tree
4. Point Your Camera in the Right Direction
5. Hinge Antennas Away From the Tree
Want to hear some more mistakes we've come across the years?
1. Using the wrong batteries.
A lot of hunters skimp out on purchasing the correct battery for their camera. Why? because they are trying to save some cash, or they simply don't know that it matters. However, this might hurt you in the long run if your camera requires lithium rather than alkaline. Trust me, I know first hand. Lithium batteries are not cheap, however, when you use the wrong battery it could cause corrosion in your battery tray thus causing your camera to work improperly, or worse yet, not at all.
In fact, if your camera is not under warranty or older this mistake could cost you more money in the long run.
2. Not formatting the SD card.
While this can be camera-specific, trail camera junkies should make sure their cards are programmed or formatted correctly. It's easy to get excited, shove the card into the camera, hang it on a tree only to come back a month later, and discover the camera didn’t take any photos.
Additionally, some cameras will not take a certain size card. There are several cameras that don’t take 64GB SD card. This could be old news to many trail camera connoisseurs but I found out the hard way. Be sure to check with the camera manufacturer before purchasing high dollar cards.
3. Facing cameras the wrong direction
This is one of the most common mistakes hunters make when hanging a trail camera. Sometimes a hunter can be so anxious to get pictures of a big buck that when they finally hang a camera and let it soak for a period of time they come back to check only to find that a majority of pictures are blasted with sunlight because of the direction it is facing. If possible, face the camera north. If you can’t, consider placing the camera on another tree or pole.
4. Angling cameras too high or too low
Sometimes if cameras are not placed at the right height they will just capture the head of a deer or species you are out to target. Worse yet, 10 deer might waltz by your camera and the camera may never go off because it was facing over their heads.
After placing your cameras in the desired location don’t be tempted to check them too often if you can help it. This is especially true if you are wanting to harvest a mature buck. Deer sense the pressure and can smell humans when we are stomping around checking cameras. Oftentimes, the data the camera retrieves is more advantageous for next season anyways. Take scent control precautions and let the camera do the work.

Good advice! I would add couple, putting camera where some branch or plant moving in wind activates camera way too often. Or another one is where morning mist comes in play (even very small slope).

Small limbs, grass or brush movement is a BIG thing to watch out for. When I first started, I made the mistake of pointing the camera toward a field with tall grasses. Looked at the contents of the card a month later and had 1000's of pictures of swaying grass. Limbs, brush the same thing especially during windy days.

That is a good tip about pointing the antenna away from the tree, I find that if you face a camera North and South you will keep the sun's glare out of of you pictures and videos, and if you hang a camera 10 to 12 it is less likely to be seen by deer and thieves

Another very informative video, thank you. I use a python cable lock to mount my cameras no need for the strap. Make small wooden "door stop" wedges to slide behind the camera to get the proper downward angle, don't use a large stick that hangs out on both sides of the tree. Always point the camera north or at least between northeast and northwest and trim any overhanging branches that might trigger the camera.

Mounting on small skinny trees that move in the wind can cause massive camera triggers that fill your card and kill your batteries. Trim/stomp weeds, low hanging limbs that are immediately in front of the camera to reduce false camera triggers. I pulled a camera once that had about 250 NIGHT pics in one night from wind moving weeds in front of the camera.

Good video, but I disagree with your antenna orientation. Dipole antennas radiate perpendicular to the antenna, so when you orient your antenna parallel with the ground as shown on the video, you've positioned it in the worst possible position for the cell signal. Cell towers are always on the horizon, not in the air, and you need the antenna oriented the same direction (vertically) as the cell tower for best reception. Check out antenna polarization for more info. Take a look at cell towers - they are all vertical for a reason. The antenna needs to match.

As far as the direction of the camera, the sunlight trips the sensor more often than usual, thus causes the camera to have sunspots and more acuations, thus burning out the sensor. Must face north to avoid this. Plus the batteries will die much faster if not hooked up to the solar panel. If the camera is level, the sensor captures more activity, especially at greater distances, such as up to 100’.

With respect to the antenna, if an antenna is 90 degrees off of the signal it is receiving, or the antenna it is sending to, signal is reduced 3db or 50%. Cell towers are vertically polarized, so pointing antenna down loses 50% signal. In a weak area, that's a lot.

To much "side cover and depth" can effect your detection zone if not placed properly thats something that should of been mentioned. Also as another person already mention should never set your antenna 90°. If your haveing cellular signal issues you need to do a few things. 1 check the carrier coverage for your camera and make sure it has good enough service for the area (an app or website to look for VERIFIED cell towers from your cameras carrier to see how close they are). 2 look into getting an after market high gain antenna that may provide a slightly better signal or even an antenna booster for better signal. 3 if thoes dont work go with a directional antenna. They maybe a bit more bulky but will generally GREATLY improve your signal and you can get them set up higer in the tree and out of direct line of sight so people wont see them. Its sad and these "Pro" hunters are putting out false information because they dont properly understand the technology they are using and then the people who trust then try it thinking "oh hey it must work be cause he said it does" and it is actually worse for your cellular cameras. And yes I can say its wrong because I have worked with cellular technology for a long time in one of my old jobs.
@ExodusOutdoorGear
@ExodusOutdoorGear 3 жыл бұрын
Also, to clarify, we aren't saying to set your antennas 90 degrees away from the tree. we are talking about the hinge. And the sole purpose of that is if it were to be tampered with or an animal jumps on it, it allows the antenna to fall away rather than break off. Your information about the after market antennas is well said and we appreciate that! We are actually doing some testing to offer some of those to our customers. thanks for the input!

Camera strap makes the camera no more or less visable then the camera its self does if properly wrapped around the tree. That camera protruding off the tree is what makes it visable NOT the strap and trying to make the case otherwise is a joke. You dont want people taking your camera put a lock box or python lock on it to help deter the more lazy thief's bit if some one really wants it they WILL take it and switching to a paracord that can be cut MUCH easier then a strap can is not a tip.

Thanks for the input Daniel! However, our point with the strap is not from the head on point of view or even the side profile. From the backside of the tree you cannot see the camera, but you can see the strap. Paracord makes the 360 degree view a lot less noticeable. Thanks for watching!

I really don't understand the hype around this Blaze Video A280 Cam and all people seem to be so happy with it. I personally have had other trail Cams before, that where the cheapest of the cheaoest, but performed way better than this A280. I truly hate this A280's delay in the audio recording so that you already see the video running when watching and then with delay the audio kicks in - ridiculous, have not ever had a cell phone, a normal good old fashioned camera, or even older a video camera 30 years ago where video and audio would not start 100% at the same time. I do videos only with my trail Cams and audio delay only is already so annoying and reason enough to not ever go for a Blaze Video Camera again. And if that wouldn't already be plenty of bad news, no, it doesn't end here. I had my cheapest $ 25 Camera and the Blaze Video A280 set up on a tree, one right an inch above the other one, both facing in exactly the same angle at the very same direction. Results are just more bad news. The cheap Cam has only one motion sensor and yet gets triggered by any wildlife motion just as early as the Blaze Video Cam with its three sensors, 1 straight +2 side sensors. On top of that, the field of view the Camera lens captures pics and records videos reaches around 10 degrees farther to each side, left and right with the cheap Cam in comparison to the Blaze Video Cam. All in all, not worth to buy a Camera for three times the price if it performs worse than one of the cheapest ones out there.

I personally don’t think deer are as sensitive as you make them out to be. As long as the camera ain’t moving they don’t give a s***.

Is there concern about removing the scent of human? It may also influence their habits I guess.

Your opinions don't make things wrong using a strap on private land, which is no problem... Placing your camera at 4 feet doesn't affect deer, and putting up high in a tree does limit the range...and many people put a camera in a food plot on a camera mount at 4 feet off the ground not even on a tree so the size of tree doesn't matter I get hundreds of pic a week deer are not bothered by the camera at all

You talk about putting cameras up sans a climbing stick, BUT yet you show not 1 but 2 different examples of people using climbing sticks. Why?

Never having used a trail cam kzfaq.infoUgkx2sTDdZXomuxedMg_HothfjSXjR3rpPkA before, I was very impressed with the quality of the images and videos. The sensitivity of the camera can be adjusted as well as the length of video recordings. Once I found the sweet spot, I was getting great clips of deer and other animals almost every day. I was worried about battery life but have been running off the same 4 aa batteries for over a month. The SD card is easy to remove and connect to a computer. I have a Mac, and the AVI files open natively in QuickTime and are easy to save and share. This is a great, budget-friendly trail cam.
