I now this isn't bowhunting, but your the folks I would like to hear from.

I came up with an idea for a trail camera that would give you 360 degree capturing capability. I wanted to get a feel and thoughts from fellow hunters about interest on a product like this?

Thanks

Dave

Sounds interesting - but it also sounds complicated.
How would you mount this?

More than likely..the mounting device will be either a ground stake or a camera arm style that would attach to a tree. However, I am thinkin the stake will be the way to go.
The prototype will solve these questions; just have to get it built. Right now I am workin off rough drawling and gathering input from fellow hunters.

I think itd be neat but cost sounds kinda expensive maybe...

Yeah cost is one thing that has come to mind; I would like to keep it as affordable as possible. The prototype will hopefully answer these type questions?

Use a tripod to mount the camera.

It would be cool to use in an open field, you could use like a fence post, you shover or drive it into the ground, the camera could mount on top and have a 360 degree view.....just some ideas...
