I have owned and operated five of these cameras over the last 18 months. They have been in the field probably 50% of the time, regardless of weather conditions. At the end of the day, for $99 when I bought them ($79 now), they are a good camera for what I need. “What I need” of course is the critical part of that sentence.

I met James Lucero at the Texas Wildlife Association (TWA) Annual Banquet in June of 2007.  During our travels across Texas – from tradeshows and banquets, to private ranches and passionate guides - we occasionally stumble upon a great product that we want to share with our audience. BOG-POD is one of those finds. Like most reviews we write, we spend a lot of time in the field testing these products in an effort to write an honest review based on our experience.

TexasHuntFish.com has put together a team of experienced hunters and anglers that get out in the fields and hit the waters all over this great state. We do this for one reason: YOU! That's not really true. We do it for ourselves as well because we share your same passion for the outdoors.

I met Atascosa Wildlife Supply at the Annual Texas Wildlife Association Meeting, then at all three Texas Trophy Hunter's Extravaganzas, and then finally at the Texas Deer Association Annual Meeting. Each time they tried to sell me a deer stand. I wanted a deer stand since Hurricane Rita knocked down our old tower blind in East Texas.

I tried to not buy the most expensive deer stand in Texas, but every time I talked to a welder or another supplier of deer stands and explained that I wanted a tower blind with a staircase that would hold me and my three kids, that would be safe enough for my little kids to walk up and down in the dark, and would have a floor height of at least 14", they said they could do it but highly recommended that I didn't. They all told me 10' is all I needed. Finally I started asking who they would recommend if this is what I had to have and they all said "Atascosa".

In the end, the stand worked out great!

However, this video of their install is a different story. I will let you be the judge.

Father's Day in the Parrish Family we were enjoying the outdoors, clearing dead branches, when we stumbled upon this newborn whitetail fawn.
