Let me tell you about a great hunting experience that I had. It was made even more unique due to the Moultrie Game Spy I-40 digital camera that we had set up at the bait I was hunting.
The evening started with a quarter-mile trek through the woods to my stand that was nestled a good 80 yards from the bait. The weather was rather balmy for this time of year and the bugs, let me tell you, were enough to drive a person insane. But I mustard up every ounce of sanity I could, and sat there waiting for the bear to come.
As dusk drew near, I pulled up my rifle to take a peek through my scope to make sure I could still see my bait clearly. Just as I was starting to lower my rifle I see movement to my left. I steadied my rifle and waited to see what was moving in. Out walked this beautiful bear, he stepped into my line of fire, I aimed and squeezed off one round. As the round hit it’s target the movement of the bear triggered our Moultrie trail camera, it took a picture of the bear right as it was hit, you can see where the impact is on the upper right shoulder, we had the camera set to take 2 pictures so the next picture is of the bear dropping and rolling over at the bait. Needless to say there was no tracking involved that night.
When I tell this story, it is always accompanied by the pictures from the Moultrie trail camera. Thank you Moultrie for making a great hunt an awesome story. We can’t wait to see what other experiences we have with your cameras, and what you come out with next!
