[QUOTE="JN, post: 5000579, member: 763"] I love running cameras and enjoy it just as much as hunting. I also enjoy getting pictures other than deer. For example this year I have been tracking a family of bobcat and a fox around the farm. I have switched over to all cell cameras because I do think you run the risk of causing deer to pattern you or avoid the area because of going in to check the cameras frequently. I think cameras also help with tracking of the rut each year I keep track of when the rut hits on the farm and from what I have gathered it typically hits from 11/15-11/20 over about 10 years of tracking this info. I also run cameras mainly on trails near bedding areas and this isn’t exactly where I plan on hunting (Due to disturbing the sanctuary) but will usually produce lots of pictures and give me an idea of what is running around. I also view the cameras as more of a hobby then needing it to hunt a deer. I still rely on my instinct, terrain features and how to locate bedding/food sources on where I will hunt. I personally think using an app like onX to mark trails, rubs, bedding areas after season is more beneficial then cameras. This will give you a better idea of where you need to set up for the next season. [/QUOTE]
