Just wondering how often everyone checks their cameras? I try to leave a 2 week period to try to not disturb the deer, but usually its hard for me not to check them every week. I get too anxious..lol

I went the cheap route and didn't buy and SD card for mine. So I check it about once every week. And delete the pictures I don't want, and put the ones I do want on my comp, then delete them and then put it back out.

Mine is close enough to home I can run down with my 4 wheeler. I will check it every 2 or 3 days, and in that time I will have 100 to 150 pictures, mine takes 2 at a time.
I've never seen a problem with the deer being spooked, and by the looks of some of the bucks I got pictures of, I don't think it bothers them either.

I will usually wait 2 weeks before I go out and get pics. I will also try to time when I go out to be within a day or less before we are suppose to get rain so that might affect when I retrieve pics by a day or two either way.

sometimes we leave it out a couple months on the one with the big battery and solar panel. Just swap out the 2MB SD cards. Otherwise about once a month. We leave them out most all year long.

30-45 days in the off season, as little disruption to the woods as possable, and 1-2 weeks in season when I am hunting depending on the temps. I use regular batteries and they don't fair well in the cold.
