Today’s blog is about a must have item for hunters and gathers. You see, everyone should have a trail camera, if not a dozen of them (I’m looking at making it a Man Law). Trail cameras enhance the overall outdoor experience for nearly everyone, and they can give you intel you can’t get yourself. Placed correctly, trail cameras can also give you amazing outdoor images that have never been seen before – literally. The Stic-N-Pic Trail Camera Tree Mount helps you capture those pictures like never before – I promise. Continue Reading →

Black Flash Trail Cameras – The Best 2
As the sun rises and sets – the world is changing. Technology is changing, people are changing – and believe it or not – deer are changing! Black flash trail cameras are the newest thing in the trail cam world – and I believe they are here to stay. Being there are literally dozens of trial camera manufactures out there today, it is tough for some people to sift through the BS, and find a trail camera that will work well. Allow me.
The benefits of black flash trail camera technology are:
1) Allows the deer to be less spooked by the trail cam – allowing for more natural movements, patterns and pictures (because deer cannot see the black flash)
2) It gives the hunters more confidence because the deer aren’t (or shouldn’t) be as spooked by trail cameras.
3) Allows for better placement of trail camera to catch trespassers and thieves!
The economics of trail cameras (and for the most part, life) is shown in the image below. Are there outliers? Hell yes. The black flash trail cameras I’m about to recommend are not cheap. Some people think it is downright ludacris to spend this much coin on a trail camera (perhaps your wife is in this category).
Best Trail Cam For The Money – Deeper Look
What is the best trail cam for the money? A few years ago, I got the trail camera bug. Grandpa and I would go out each weekend and change the film and get the pictures developed. Trail cameras that use film are long gone. Thank goodness those where expensive, and certainly not the best trail cam for the money! After a couple of years not running trail cameras – I’ve gotten the itch again, and chances are it is not going away anytime soon. You’ve probably noticed that with my posts about the Reconyx trail cameras and Stic-N-Pic trail camera stand. They are are favorite combo. Recently, I got an email from a friend asking about what is the “best trail camera for the money”. Some of my thoughts are below.
Buying The Best Trail Cam For the Money – Things To Consider
1- Budget. This is hands down the first thing to consider. There is no need going broke or getting divorced because you bought a trail camera you could not afford. Continue Reading →
Stic-n-Pic Trail Camara Stand Review
21 minutes 16 seconds. That’s how long I talked to Jesse Hurley about a stupid trail camera stand (turns out, it’s not stupid at all). Earlier that morning, I had gone into a great field edge, looking to hang my reconyx trail camera. Well, it took 10 minutes. And it wasn’t in the perfect place. And, it just pissed me off that I’d spent that much time in honey hole, messing around.
Later that morning, I was looking over the different trail camera stand options, and gave Stic-n-Pic a solid look. I had heard of them before, and was impressed with the design. It looks like the perfect trail camera stand (that’s because it is). I put a call out on our Facebook page, and Jesse quickly responded. Like I alluded earlier in this blog, I talked to him for awhile. As it turns out, we are brothers. I believe we were separated at birth because he could grow a better mustache. But I digress.
The Stic-n-Pic can do everything but wipe your ass (for the most part).
This trail camera stand can be placed anywhere, at any angle, on any camera. No joke. Watch the video, it’ll show you everything you need to know. It also is the only trail camera stand in the industry, that can hold two (or more) trail cameras at once. Put that in your pipe and smoke it!
Below are some pictures I took of the Stic-n-Pic, if you have any questions, please feel free to join their Facebook page, or shoot Jesse an email at Sticnpic.com.
