    Bigger camera lens

    I use a Sigma 120-400 through my Canon. It is a pretty good lens and might be in your budget.

    First Western Hunt-Success

    cc23454, I wasn't apologizing. We were both very happy with our bucks. I was just stating that now I got my feet wet, I would try to shoot larger bucks. I've been hunting whitetails since I was a little kid, but I am definitely a rookie when it comes to muleys. We had a blast!

    First Western Hunt-Success

    My brother and I did a DIY archery mule deer hunt in Southern WY. We had never hunted the west before. We saw some nice ones and we each shot a smallish buck. I'm sure neither of us will shoot deer this small on future hunts, but for our for DIY western hunt, we were thrilled.

    What has hunting become?

    I see it the same way most of you do, with a twist. I have no moral or ethical problem with what he is doing. It is not "hunting" the way I do it or grew up doing it, but I'm okay with it. But I think he is reaching to act like his $5000 helps conservation. If I was a landowner with a giant...

    Video camera recommendations?

    Batteries do okay, the standard claims 75 minutes or so, it probably gets a little less, but not horrible. I've tried a generic and it didn't hold up at all.

    Video camera recommendations?

    Canon Vixia HF100 is what I use. They don't make it anymore, but you could probably pick one up for under $200 on ebay. Here is a sample of a deer I self-filmed. http://youtu.be/8L-l1x1Jacw?list=UU5skKGHXO_EenMT6muYNP0w
