Anyone carry a trail cam into hunt and set it up for video while hunting?

 Was watching "Bowhunter" on the outdoor channel and they were talking about trailcams .  Anyone carry an extra one on all their hunts and set it up by the stand they are hunting to get action shots or video of the hunt?  I was thinking might setup a trailcam to do that and try to catch the deer I am shooting at on video when they come in and carry it with me to each stand for the days hunt.   Gun I wont bother with but bow hunting it would be fun.   Have each spot ready to go each time just have to put camera there.

I wish I would have had the foresight to set this one to video last year. Shot is about a half second or so after pass through. Bolt is in the ground to what looks like below her, but she took off a little sideways. She fell right behind the camera and stumbled her way to it. Would have made better video than a photo shot. The camera was already there, but I wished I would have switched it to video. Something I'll try to remember this year. I'm in the stand in the upper right corner.

An awesome pic though. 

I usually put cams on edges of where I hunt but might try putting one right there on video just to try and get moments like those.

I have a video off a cam that I keep near a stand of a friend shooting at a doe on video , you can watch her duck the arrow at 24 yards

Yes i put my brownings in spots i suspect archery opportunities to happen. I have my my wife on cam missing a doe at 16 steps. She hit her mark but the doe reacted to the shot and missed over her back. Ill see if i can find the screen shots. 

Cant figure out how to post videos. ITs pretty neat. I Have a couple others as well. These HD videos are the best

The video is even cooler. I downloaded a sport app on my phone smart coach or something. You can upload videos too and replay them in slow mo, edit. doc up acreen shot etc.. to learn from. Works great for this slow mo archery shots

I keep one with me in case I get a deer and I put it over the gut pile to see what coming to it.
