Thanks! It's actually not a head cam, it's a GoPro that I latched on to my bow. Works great, hands free.

Wow, quite a contraption you have there! You did get some good footage, but honestly I will never understand the need people have these days to videotape themselves doing just about everything? I guess it's the Youtube era we are living in and it's here to stay. I for one will continue to concentrate on the hunting part, and then if I remember, I will have someone snap a picture of me with the dead animal once it's down. I am OLD school I reckon, but that's OK. I have fewer contraptions to lug out into the woods with me. LOL

Nice setup RITBlake. I do the same exact thing but face the camera towards me for the second angle shot. i use a small canon for the first angle. Hard to adjust the camera while deer is coming in but it makes it more of a challenge.

[WestchesterBowman]

How do you mount the first camera?

[stubbz]

Nice job!! Yea I just look at 70 degrees and say na I'll wait. Maybe in the am supposed to be cooler maybe mid 50's in the morn,

whats warmness have to do with anything, sure deer dont move as much in warmer weather but its not 90 out anymore. id rather be comfy with light layers than freezin and bundled like crazy.

i was thinkin same thing tho, 20+ does and bucks thats just crazy id be in that spot everyday

[stubbz]

i made a small L bracket for my camera to mount it right behind my stabilizer, only problem is my camera makes a noise when it turns on so i cant really use it, gotta figure out if i can turn it off somehow, i like ur setup tho, i shoot the same Mission Venture bow and love it

[Burden24]

Had some luck last night hunting in 8J. This guy came in around 630 walking the edge of the swamp and woods. I had seen him a couple times scouting an was trying to decide whether to take him or not. He turned out to be better then I originally thought with some cool browtines making 11 scoreable points. He gave me a 30 yd broadside shot and the G5 did the rest hitting the heart and left lung. He expired within 30 yds of me. I was happy for a good clean kill. Great way to start this early season!

[mbucks27]

That is a great buck Burden24!!! Congrats.
