Hey

[@johndeere-8444]

Outdoors With The Morgans hello

[@Sam_Holladay]

We always point our cameras in a northerly direction. N/E, N/W or N. East and West have the rising and setting sun and it doesn't matter what time of the year it is, the sun always sweeps to the south(in the northern hemisphere). I like head high also. We used to put them at belt buckle level and got great pics, but once we put them head high, our pics doubled and even tripled. Great video.

[@albertaburbank118]

thank you so much for this simple set up,did not need my husbund's help,so proud of myself i finally did it

[@zzz7zzz9]

camera direction is definitely an important one, and easily forgotten when in the field setting up a cam. sunrise and sunset can sure wreck some pictures. just as important, is to clear the cam's field of view of moving objects. a swinging branch or swaying grass can keep your cam taking pictures all day. and really important, before committing to buying a pricier cellular t-cam, is to walk your areas with your phone, checking the reception in your intended spots.

[@cfishel15]

Perfect timing, Mike -- I just bought my first trail camera and will install it this weekend! Thanks so much!!

[@j3swindellbasketballbaseba875]

Where did you buy it?

[@billr9097]

All great points Mike also it is AMAZING how many squirrels I get on my camera, the last sd card had 13 in one frame..I might have to include some biscuits and gravy with some of them.

[@Clintbomax]

Hello I have enjoyed your videos so much and very nice to see folks that enjoys the outdoors as much as I do. Please keep the videos coming and also love the family!!

[@comlbbeau]

I agree with your tips.... especially avoiding east and west orientations. I'd rather have a half-dozen relatively cheap cameras than a couple of really nice ones, and I've had good success with StealthCam model STC-P12 and STC-P14 models which can be had in pairs for about $80. I take 3-picture bursts with 30 seconds between activations - a standard setting. Customized settings can be set, if desired. I have two SD cards per camera, so I can swap out cards when I visit each camera location. The trail cam is definitely one of the best tools in the hunter's toolbox.

[@humbleheart7196]

Always wanted to add cameras , but never really had an idea how to best utilize them for placement. Thx for helping understand.

[@chrisdavis4492]

thanks got my 1st camera picked up the one you have but my pics are all white like nothing there blank do i need reprogram sd card? Or is it camera or me.

[@thomassparks8294]

Most likely something was very close to the camera, when it fired the flash.

[@bradleykessler1787]

@@thomassparks8294 yeah

[@sixosixo]

Love seeing what's on my cameras each week. nice video Mike!

[@JnJTrueOutdoorAdventures]

Great video and very useful information. My son and I actually have 4 of these cameras and have them setup in the Monongahela National Forest in Greenbrier County, WV. We had two setup last year, 2017, that we got two more. Great pictures and battery life. Juddie - J & J TOA

[@mckohtz]

I'm from Eastern North Carolina, trying to set up my first trail cameras! Great info! Thanks!

[@jeffclaus4422]

Glad you like it but I returned mine because you can’t adjust anything. It’s either one pic or one short video. Correct me if I’m wrong but pretty sure that’s the same cam I had.

[@philipcross5332]

I'm thinking of getting some camaras so this video came at the right time ! Good tips 👍

[@akbychoice]

Ritz camera place, now that’s something I haven’t heard in a long time.

[@steveseymour9380]

Great helpful video,I just bought two of these cameras and was looking for tips to use them .I have been subscribed to your channel for about 6 months and really enjoy it. Steve from Orrington Me.

[@wizard1800]

Keep up the good work! Thanks for the video on the bantam jeep festival. I plan to be there next year!

[@LaughingblueSu]

From WA state. I am going to put up trail cameras for security. Thanks for a good video.

[@deernutOO]

Was interested, but then saw the date.. some good points. I've dropped the cheap trail cam idea, after Wildgame, lots of Primos, etc. Switched to Browning Strike Force and do 20 sec video with 5 sec in between events. Awesome clear videos and on 6 of the pink bunny lithium batteries. One of five camera's recorded over 1000 20 sec video's on one set of 6 bats. Found that rechargeable batteries do not last that long. The main complaint with these cheaper cams is they last a couple months past the one-year warranty.. then crap out. All too consistent to think it is not pre-programmed into the camera.

[@jaydoggie8379]

Nice video and good tips👍 Maybe you could make a playlist with your wildlife and hunting type videos. Would like to see some of those trailcam pics!

[@mikeengler2203]

I use Bushnell s about $100 eight batts get us from Sept to Jan....real real cold sap their energy...to have them up high stick a branch behind the box to have. it point down...lately we have gone to 10sec motion you get a better idea....nice Buck !!! I use Excaliburs

[@fishingbreath]

I don't hunt but I do photography and been using trail cameras for 3 or 4 years. Its nice to see whats using an area before I set up to photograph. I have pics of deer, bear, coyote even fishers. Your dead on about direction. you did a great video.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks, If you don't mind sharing post some of your pictures on our Facebook page outdoors with the morgans

[@thomassparks8294]

One other thing I do, especially with cams that don't have a display, use your phone's camera for aiming.

[@LloydJarvis]

I had game cameras upto just a few years ago that the battery's would die in a week. Got tired of messing with them. I'm gonna try these out. Thanx. Keep up the good vid's.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

lloyd jarvis, that used to be very frustrating. They aren't like that anymore

[@1017Bucky]

You need to be sure and purchase the IR (Infra-red or the "black flash or no flash" type of camera. The old style "flash" cameras used a lot of juice and batteries went fast. If they don't have to flash batteries last much longer.

[@regsparkes6507]

HumbleHeart said what I was going to say too. This video is right on the money Mike, I was just today looking at Amazon,( here in Canada ) for a low cost TrailCam. so that I might start seeing what walks through my woods. I am not a hunter, but I do like guns, and shooting holes in paper targets and collecting . This has helped me to go ahead and order a camera. That Terra10 is not available here on Amazon.ca, but they do show it's 'little brother the Terra5. (I wonder what that one's like?) Well, I just might order one and see, unless somebody's got a better idea of what we should order. Thanks for this.

[@matthewward7252]

Great video! I have always used Bushnell Trail Cams. They are a little expensive but they last. The Bears mess with our cameras.i am to try the wild game cam. Thanks

[@tinabrown2300]

I actually bought one for my home lol. Someone has been taking things from my home and I'm gonna catch em' 🤟 thanks for your help. I know no one will expect this to be in my home lol

[@HNSHKR]

Howdy. I'm from SE Wisconsin, and I have an escape in Conover WI in the far north. Thanks for showing me how to set up my camera.

[@dnsmithnc]

Make sure their aren't any branches or brush nearby causing false triggers. Don't know how many pictures I have gotten of branches swaying in the breeze. In the example given above, I would have broken the little branches off in the near field of view.

[@smartcatcollarproject5699]

Recent models can discriminate vegetation from a real animal, so less false positive, but it drains the batteries in a few days as the little computer inside is working everytime something moves ! So yes, better clean the vegetation at least a few meters in front of the camera. I'm still looking for a way to monitor a small pond in undergrowths, where I can't remove all bushes and aquatic vegetation close to the cam, and I don't want to come and replace 4 or 8 batteries every few days...

[@LifeinNewHampshire]

Thanks for the info

[@Shredderman1234]

Thanks for the tips Mike

[@julianp2868]

Lol thanks for this just learning myself

[@ericbrown2542]

Good tips. I have the same camera, can't beat it for the price. My local Walmart has them for $46. I just found Dick's sporting goods has them on sale for $35 and free shipping. I just ordered another one. Not sure how long the sale will last.

[@portugeeprepper6821]

I use the same trail cams their pretty decent, the night pictures are ok. But overall they are pretty decent. Thanks

[@snazzyusername]

Nice cameras! I use cheap rechargeable batteries from ebay in mine and they work great. EBL is the brand name printed on them. The technology is still changing to a point where the pictures are sent directly to your phone. A buddy of mine was able to catch a camera thief when his was stolen because he got the picture on his phone. I also like the fact that I don't bump the deer when checking the camera. Great video! Thanks!

[@rsenl7270]

Wildgame innovations does make some decent cameras for the price point. We use 4 of them on public land and they get the job done.

[@davidgrossman5104]

I have a Scrapeline and have good luck with it

[@AngelHaycock]

Super informative and helpful! Thank you.

[@outboardfixer]

Good....simple...TO THE POINT vid. Well done.

[@vh2337]

Would have been nice to show some photos from your installation later on.

[@lowellkoebnick4903]

Nice work now lets some Pics that you get. And you will like the box stand I have them up about 6 ft. and have a budy heater in it . LJK in northern Minnn.

[@WalkerOutdoors]

I use the exact same camera for one of my locations it's probably my best one you should check out my most recent trail camera pics you will enjoy actually it's trail camera video but yeah I'm like you it's all about the camera great video by the way great tips

[@cabinviewventures]

Dicks has good sales on trail cams right now. Just picked up the Cloak 12 Pro for $70 came with batteries and sd card.

[@bigt518]

I'm new to hunting so I want to learn

[@jdeshetlerII]

I bought the same camera a few weeks ago. So far a couple of does, a squirrel, a cat, and a baby Big Foot (oops that was me..) all on video mode. When I read the instructions, (needed reading glasses) it said the batteries should last for a year.

[@markmesi2094]

So when you approach to camera and you want to find out if you have any pictures on there do you shut the camera off first and then pull your SD card out

[@humbleheart7196]

I ordered two units. Will share photos of what i find.

[@peterlosangelos4108]

Show some pics. Great channel thanks

[@brendawiseman1232]

Hi mike thank you for your trail cameras I will go buy two of these cameras so when I leave my truck and trailer in the woods when to use come along nearly will try to steal my wheels trailer wheels so we have a picture of them from Allen have a good day Mike

[@harrywoods9987]

Mike,do you POST your land against public access ? I saw what looked like a signboard at the beginning of this video. IT seems like you live on a fairly busy highway so posting would be necessary to make it safe for you and family .

[@tommyordoyne7461]

Thanks for the tips. Seems we carry our SD cards the same way. In a ziploc bag.

[@MrMharley]

I found the link to the trail cameras Mike , thanks

[@eileennatoli1385]

Thank you so much.

[@KaznBigG]

Good tips thanks, just subscribed to your channel, we also love the outdoors here in UK living in country, just bought our first Trail cams APEMAN H45 1080p 12mp, we're touring the states next year so looking forward to seeing your country and trails. Can I ask what camera you shoot your youtube videos with? Thanks.

[@tokyodragonmasterlee409]

Good video 👍

[@sandypaul996]

Do you have to format the disc first?

[@russellbowman8051]

Yes I love my trail cams love getting deer pictures and then try to target the one!! 👊

[@lindacurtis9730]

[@lennartstigsson4972]

[@buster2725]

[@ronathey5287]

Wind blowing got pics of tree's batterys dead in a week

[@j3swindellbasketballbaseba875]

Where do you buy these trail cameras and do the bungee cords come with them?

[@1017Bucky]

Personally I like CuddeBack cameras. They are more expensive than Wildgame, but way less than the most expensive digital trail cameras. I believe CuddeBack has been a leader in the innovation and development of these types of cameras over the years. Although their cameras are now made in China (I'm guessing they all are), it's a US company. I own several of their cameras and what little problems I have had in the past was quickly addressed to my satisfaction by the company. Check out their website to view their photo galleries - thousands of cool pictures.

[@tonysoprano5411]

i HAVE SET UP MY CAMERA. What do i do to start it to take pictures and video

[@wherenorthbegins7831]

Mike, try and put it about knee level. I have a few different types of cameras from regular bright flash, IR cameras and black flash that will not glow at all. I've had really good luck with pictures and the bucks will look like giants. I do have a KZbin channel but I don't know how to edit videos, I have a lot of trail cam videos to put on there but it takes forever

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

K Carlson, I got a real good buck tonight!

[@wherenorthbegins7831]

Outdoors With The Morgans awesome!

[@billr9097]

Congrats Mike cant wait to see him

[@sunshinerythym]

Can I check for recorded pictures/videos on the actual camera?

[@gerrymcquagge4986]

Whrre can I purchase those batteries that last forever?

[@muddy_armadillo]

Oh I love these knives. Takes more than one time to cut it.

[@imfloridano5448]

Weres the bigfoot shots, i know ya have sum👣

[@arielpowell8649]

Just got one of these while doing some trading. I like it but I cant use it because i keep getting an error message when i put the sd card in. I'm on my 4th different sd card and ive formatted them all before trying them and all ive got so far is a quick full then error message. Any ideas or tips please? Thank you!

[@Fabes002]

What size sd card do you generally use?

[@keithrushing7855]

Hey MORGAN THATS FOR YOUR INFORMATION YOUR VIDEO WAS GREAT. TONS OF FUN YOUR FREIND KEITH

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Thanks Keith

[@keithrushing7855]

HEY MORGAN WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT WIRELESS CAMERAS

[@phitness2429]

do you set it to images or photos on the still setting?

[@KeepinYouUp07]

Zopu cams on Amazon ARE the best for the price. Trust me, you won't be disappointed

[@arteohesdub5100]

Is it waterproof?

[@nancylynch7581]

What was the name of the knife

[@richardperri322]

learned some things i did not know

[@JC-wz8oo]

Was that a Gerber knife you used to open the package

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

I actually had two, to open the package was Gerber, The other is a Bench made I used to cut open Bungee

[@JC-wz8oo]

Outdoors With The Morgans . I noticed that there were 2. And I thought.....excellent preparation Mike. Hmmmm.......2 knives......2 cameras. Perhaps there should be........2 tractors?

[@usernamemykel]

Gerber knives are for babies.

[@matthewsims359]

Good tips for the trail camera setup

[@davidb.beasley7359]

I have problems in deleting pictures from the disc. Can you help with that? Thanks. David

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Are you uploading them on computer?

[@davidb.beasley7359]

I like to check the chip and the delete the photos of no interest. I haven't figured this process out with my MacBook.

Love trail cameras but would never be dumb enough to hunt beautiful wild animals.

[@archeryhunter72]

Thats because you are a snowflake....everyone knows snowflakes are to dumb to provide themselves with food.

[@urbanothepopeofdeath]

#7....don't set it next to a gate! lol mistakenly put one on a post next to a gate. as the wind blew the gate would move.....700 pictures and videos of nothing! oh well, live and learn...

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

Yea don't do that lol

[@pointecheneplantation7027]

Great Video. We enjoy y’all’s channel regularly. We have a lot of fun with trail cameras as well. Check us out at Pointe Chene Plantation.

[@rafon.]

Here's *one and only* tip. *Read the manual.*

[@Rise_and_Fall]

In my country, we cant use bare camera because elephant like to play(smash) with it so much😂

[@smartcatcollarproject5699]

Elephants are know to be aggressive with flashes and other lights...

[@chado3000]

Here's a tip. If you have a video named "6 tips for best trail camera pictures", and you're on #88, you should learn how to count.

[@OutdoorsWithTheMorgans]

The videos are numbered, but more importantly Im amazed at something, I get very few negative comments or haters on this channel from people like you, but when I do they all have one thing in common. Almost all of them have to edit their comments. So its like they try their hardest to bring someone else down, they read the comment and are like"no wait, I should say this instead lol. Now here's a tip for you, trying to bring someone down doesn't lift you up, doesn't work that way.

[@acteon-nature-wildlife4507]

Hello jolie vidéo explicative thank you suis SUBSCRIBE wellcom my channel

I'm aorry...I would never patronize the Busbice family that owns wildgame brand trail cams....these people are no good...look into their background...the old man is Bill Busbice
