Game cams

[tRidiot]

Ok, so I just bought a hunting lease out by Perry, and I'm wondering if anyone knows how good the reception is out in that area? I'm headed out Wednesday to scope out my spot and put up a blind and maybe a feeder. I'd like to put up a game cam and have it send some pics. It's about 90 minutes away from home (one way), so going out just to download pics would be a major PITA.

If it helps, this is in the vicinity of Hwy 15 and County Road 34300.

See if that works.

I'm open to buying a game cam and a StraightTalk cellular card for whichever cellular towers have decent coverage in that area if anyone is familiar with it...

Depends on the provider and what’s working well in your area. BTW, congrats on the new place

We have gone to the Cuddelink cell system this year. We get spotty cell service on our phones but the home unit sends pics just fine. The nice thing about the Cuddebacks is we have several cameras that all work off the home unit. 1 $20/mo cell plan takes care of all the pictures from all of the cameras. They aren’t the cheapest cameras but only having to pay for 1 data plan offset’s the cost some.

I'm in Bartlesville, so Google Maps is telling me I'm about 90 minutes from the lease I got. I won't be able to go out every week by any means, but I'd like to go a few times. It was a good deal, so I jumped on it.

Moultrie has a new one out that was on sale for $129 at cabelas. It didn’t have an external antenna like most do. I’ve got one area that if I’m standing where the cam is, I don’t have any service but if I climb the stand I get one bar. Wonder if the cam would be the same?
I have heard that the reception on the cams is better than phones though.

Actually reception on my phone is better than my cameras, so....

I think I'm going to get the Moultrie XA7000i. Unless someone tells me it's a total POS, but I've read a lot of reviews and watched some videos... it requires a separate data plan, but there are no start/stop fees, no contrcts, etc. So I can run it for a couple months during hunting season and re-eval whether I want to keep it going or reduce the plan, or whatever.

Does it come with a SIM card?
If it’s with ATT, Buy a Session has reasonable plans.

Spypoint cell cameras just need to be activated for use via their phone app.

The first month you get their unlimited premium transfer plan. After that it's limited to 100 pics per month if you don't subscribe to a plan.

The link micros are around $150 normally. If you find them under that I would buy one.

The micros are pics only. The link darks do pics, video and allow for review directly on the camera.
