TricksandTipsonFieldSetup
 Forbestresults,mountthecameraapproximatelythree(3)feetoffthegroundfacingstraightforward,aslevel
aspossible.Besuretoadjustforuneventerrain.
 Toenhancetheflash,werecommendpositioningthecamerainanareawithabackdroptoreflectthemaximum
amountof
light.Forinstance,placethecamera20‐30’fromafieldedgefacingthewoods.Forinsideoftimber,
positioningthecamerafacingathicketapproximately20‐30’away.
 Clearbrushawayfromthefrontofthecameratoavoidfalsetriggers.
 Facethecameradownagame
trail,ratherthandirectlyatit,tocovermoreoftheanimal’spath.
 TrytosetthecameraupfacingNorthorSouthtoavoidoverexposurefromthesuninthemorningorthe
eveningwhengamemovementisatitspeak.
 UseoneoftheCovertmounting
systemstomountthecamerauphigherpointingdownonthemforabetter
look.Thisalsoworksgreatwhenyoudonothaveastraighttreetoattachto.Youcanfindourlineofmounting
