Video Cameras for hunting
azhuntnut replied to flagcoueskiller's topic in Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife
I bought a Panasonic PV-gs300 a while back and can't say enough good things about it. It comes with image stabilization that makes your videos turn out great. You won't get all of the shake. I did alot of research before I bought this one. You can also take some good stills with it. I bought it from Beachcamera.com in California. I have bought two cameras from them now with no issues.

I have been considering trying a new pair of boots. I have recently been using the Danner Pronghorn uninsulated for the last couple years, but only seem to get one season out of them before the sole wears out or they start to leak a little. Has anybody tried these boots made by Cabelas? I like the idea of them being lite and fast break in period. I imagine they must be pretty tough also. What do you think?

Hopefully he makes a full recovery. I am sure he will have to change his name to GROUNDBLINDMAN. David

I buddy of mine was selling a 2005 Sportsman 500 4x4 AT with only 20hrs on it, so I bought it last month. I thought about keeping ol' reliable, but my boy is too small to ride it for another 5 years. I am selling a 2000 Sportsman 500 that I purchased new. I have strictly maintained this quad from day one. I only use Mobil 1 synthetic oils and Polaris synthetic trans fluid. I change the oil and lube every 250-350 miles. It has new bearings and seals in the front end. I have also upgraded the coil springs to the Sportsman 700 springs. They handle more weight. Recent complete brake job. I had the belt changed and valves adjusted at around 500 miles. The tires and wheels are off of a new Ranger. They are 26 inch Polaris Extremes mounted on 10 inch wheels. There is a Warn 1500 lb winch on the front and custom built racks front and rear. It is also street legal. I upgraded the battery to a larger cold cranking unit, that is new also. K&N filter. Custom mud flares. The bike has 2611 miles and 325 hrs. Its starts everytime and never leaves me stranded. I think it even runs a little better than my new one. You won't be disapointed with this bike. All you need to do is turn the key and ride, it needs nothing but a good home and new hunting buddy. Price $3750.00 David

My dad can beat up your dad.

I am sorry I am not a perfect shot like yourself. I was just trying to help out another fellow hunter. At least you picked a good forum name for yourself. David P.S. Could you please post some video of those 400 yard prone shots.

Carry extra batteries in your pack for those just in case moments. I had mine on the rez last year for a lion hunt and the batteries went dead on the second stand. We had to go all the way back to camp for more. David

I have a factory muzzlebreak on my Browning A-bolt. I wish I had one on all of my high power rifles. It allows you to go out to the range and fire alot more rounds through the gun without getting beat up or have to worry about the flinch. I used to go out once a week and shoot at least fifty rounds through my .300 win mag with hot loads and not have much of a sore shoulder. It also depends on the weight of your gun. I have a 5.5 pound .270 that I hate to shoot because of the excessive recoil. Get a muzzlebreak and a good recoil pad and you will see your groups get smaller. David

I have some property in the East Clear Creek area and I have had some coues on my trail cameras. I have been fishing and hunting in the 5bn area for over twenty years and I have never seen a coues in there. That doesn't mean they aren't there. Maybe El Fuego will jump in here and give us the truth. David

While helping out on a rifle bull hunt this weekend in 5bn, I managed to find some nice sheds. The elk has it's eye gaurd broken off, but had no other damage. Now the other shed I am not sure about. I thought for sure it was a muley until I started looking at it some more. It seems to have the curve like a whitetail without any branching like a muley. What do you guys think? David

Jeremy, PM sent.

Quad is still for sale. David

I wish I had one, so I could fly over the Verde Hot Springs. I have seen some TROPHYS in there. If you guys ever met Jimmy face to face you would found out real quick that he is pretty nice fella. He will always send you in the right direction for some good hunting areas and never ask for anything back. It took some guts to say that he owned one of these planes and I applaud him for it. I even wanted to go up also, until he told me about the accident. Alot of us are using technology available now that our fathers didn't have back in the day. Even our clothing allows us to stay out longer, and keeps us dry for those wet days in the field. David

During bear season in August, I had about ten turkeys walk right up to my blind. Of course the season wasn't open yet. I am going to try and get one with my bow next year for sure. David

Jimmy, I still like you no matter what kind of names they call you behind your back. David

Thanks for passin along the info. I really wanted to keep this quad since it has been so good to me. My new one is a little cold blooded and takes a while to get going, but this one starts right up and runs like a champ. I just wish my boy was old enough for it. Whomever buys it will like the way it runs and rides. David

All that means is Hoyt and Matthews gives away more of there bows than the other companys. I have had five PSE's and one old Bear. Combined I have killed 10 animals with one shot each. I would love to try shooting some of the others, but I won't fix it if it isn't broken. David

It doesn't matter what type of bow you shoot. I just matters if you know how to shoot it. I think my current bow is 38in axle to axle, and only shoots 254 fps. But I have managed to shoot several animals with it and a pope and young bull. I think these new bows look pretty cool, and I am sure they shoot great, but I can't see how they can charge so much for them. David

I thought it was a mule deer, but it is still OK to dream. I saw lots of tracks, but no mule deer on this hunt. David

I was helping a guy out on a rifle elk hunt this weekend in 5bn and thought I would take him to a canyon where I had seen a 310-320 bull last Sunday. I had also seen alot of digging and good bear sign in the canyon. While I was glassing for the bull this guy start heading down the canyon. I managed to get him on video and then took the picture off the video. He actually crossed the canyon and started coming up the side we were on. I got a little ahead of myself and passed the ravine he was coming up, but the other guy got a look at him before he turned tail. I did manage to find that bull later in the day, but it was to thick for a clean shot. I also saw about twenty pigs today at 6600 feet and some fat coyotes. David

He was a shooter for sure. I would think he was over 300 pounds. I took this video from 130 yards through my camera. I checked the bear hotline before I left and a sow had already been shot. David
