Poor Man's Hat Cam
Permalink  
 


If you don't have a GoPro or the like and you have a small digital camera hanging around you can quickly make an inexpensive hat cam and use to take video of your shoots.  I have little doubt it works.  American Redneck Engineering and worth a try.

What's that old saying? Where there is a will, there are relatives. (or something close to that)

Good tip, but for crow hunting, I would want to use a little camo tape or cloth on all those reflective surfaces.

Thanks for posting.

Great!!! I haven't seen anything like this since early versions of the Red Green Show! The only thing that would have made it better is if you had duct-taped it to the hat. wink Seriously, show us some crow carnage with this rig!

I love it! biggrin

That dude has a solid Youtube following and goes by the name of "Aqua Chigger" He specializes in metal detecting streams and rivers for Civil war artifacts.

There is a nice little camera from ATN.
Called the "Shot trak" and is very inexpensive about 1/6th of the price of a similar camera I saw ( the "shotkam" )
It has a picatinny mount, and you can get a barrel clamp picatinny mount for around $25.00
It's a 5x power lens, so you actually get to see the birds, unlike the go pro with its wide angle where often all you see is empty sky
i think the "shot trak" costs around the $100.00 or less

there are two versions, one with lazer and one without

i have the one without, but still waiting on the U clamp Picatinny mount to come :)
