[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5531947, member: 1409"] I can actually see how any cam could create problems on a water hole in a western desert. But on most places in TN, public or private, I believe they cause more benefit than harm, even to those [I]NOT [/I]using trail cams. One of the main factors behind the increase in hunters eagerly passing up young bucks has been their having pictures of older bucks on trail cams. This in turn has dramatically increased the number of 2 1/2 & older bucks available for [I]ALL[/I] hunters. Another thing: The use of trail cams can actually cause a decrease in other hunters intruding (scouting) wherever you are or were planning to hunt. I'd much rather have someone place a cell cam in an area than be walking around that area "scouting" for fresh sign. Truth is, "scouting" (in person) does more to harm other hunters opportunities than anyone's trail cams. Trail cams simply cause more good than bad, at least here in most of Tennessee. [/QUOTE]
