Thanks.
I've you used many brands of cameras and a high end cuddeback in my eyes is unbeatable. I've not used the capture models yet, but a good friends of mine has and likes them, but he tells me there not as nice as there big brother. At half the price I didn't expect them to. The biggest thing i've learned about trail cameras is you get what you pay for.
Fred, I'd love to get the No flash model, but I can get 2 captures for the price of one no flash. The NO Flashs images are better quality and you get more range also. But to me covering 2 spots for the price of one and still getting good quality images is where I ended up. If I had the cash, I would have 5-6 No Flash models

some people leave them out all year... its nothing like seeing what is actaully happening when oyu arent there. Plus, if you put them somewhere early, deer are probably more likely to ignore them later in the season

Take care.
same here... I only found 1 shed so far, but 95% have dropped.. im pulling my cameras today to recheck to see if any are left.
most of the sheds this year appear to be in the woods, since ive been over 800 acres of fields and found only one shed LOL
I have read on one of the sites that Bushnell Trophy Cam and the Scoutguard are the same cameras, just packed differently. Made for different brands.
If you compare pictures from Bushnell Trophy and Scoutguard even the bottom info bar looks awfully similar.
Here is a picture from The Bushnell Trophy.
they are made at the same place... bushneel approached them supposedlt after the scoutguard came out so they remade that camera into a different housing for them. Thus we have the trophy cam
