backwoodsbowhunter Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 well i had sat up a spot and put out my trail camera and went to check it today. showed up and there was a doe and fawn in front of my camera at my mineral lick. i was excited knowing id have a few pics when i got to my camera i found that i didnt put in the sd card so it didnt record any pictures. i guess i wont do that again adds some experience though 16 years old and have much more to learn.

redkneck Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 I'm pushing 40 my friend and I've forgotten to turn mine on a time or two. Some things get better with experience, but you'll always make goofy mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogdoc Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 I can't tell you the number of times I've forgotten to turn the camera on. Two weeks ago I put a camera up on a mineral lick. Checked it this weekend and had over 50 triggers. Went to pull the card out and guess what--NO CARD! Forgot to put it in. It is stored in the camera's memory but didn't want to bring the camera home to look at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinger-Hunter Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 If that is the silliest mistake you make this year, consider yourself lucky or a genius. I hunted with a guy a few years ago that was so excited about hunting season that he forgot his bullets. We had to go all the way back to the house. Two lessons: 1. Repeat every morning before leaving: "wallet, keys, license, gun, bullets" OR "wallet, keys, license, bow, arrows, and trigger" 2. Use the same caliber as everyone else and you're half-way there.
