Just picked up my camtrakker today and got the pics developed. I got pictures of 6 different bucks. All of them hit the same scrape. I had the camera set up over a scrape.
This is a picture of the big one I shot on Sunday. He is rub urinating on the scrape.
This deer is also rub urinating on the scrape.
I got 5 different pictures of this guy.
All but 2 of my pics were after dark. The 2 that were during the day are of the last buck

Awesome pics!! Can I come hunt with you???
anyway, I have a question for ya, does taking the pictures spook the deer at all--do they or have they abandoned this scrape? I would think the flash would spook them into the next county. Just wondering.

I do not think the flash has any effect on them. I have gotten multiple pictures of the same deer in the past.

Never heard of a camtracker! How does it work and how much does one cost?

Weezer you can go to camtrakker.com It has some info. I'll tell you what I know. They work on heat in motion. The first unit I had keep tripping on windy days. When I would get my film processed I would have 25 pics on the woods. However they went ahead and sent me out a brand new unit( Great customer service). They use a yashika (SP) with a zeiss lens If you ever price zeiss rifle scopes you will understand the price. With the locking cable it came to $464.99. I read a lot of reports and camtrakker was rated tops. Just my 2 cents.......marty

Thank you for sharing the pictures from your camtrakker. I think I will be investing in one of these cameras!
Best Regards,

I don't think the flash would make any difference to the deer. They see lightning all the time and I don't think they are that smart to know the difference...SnS
