Has anyone taken it off-road? Looking for something quite that can get me into my hunting stand and check the trail camera's.

I have never been "off road" with mine, but I have had to ride through some areas where the road had been torn up for repairs. I did have to go through some short places where the road saw torn up and based on this I would not recommend this scooter for regular off road use. I think you would want something with bigger wheels for that sort of riding.

off road is all I do, and works fine Most for me 10 or twelve miles but depends on terrain

The tires are designed for off-road use. I ride this thing on grass and dirt sometimes. Just don't expect to achieve 30MPH on off-road trails or 20 mile range. Those numbers get dramatically reduced.

Just for short stints in the desert on mostly non-rocky paths. Keep an eye on the large nut that hold the steering bearing races tight.

Not bad, I would suggest going to the more expensive no-flash if you can afford it? If not this is a great camera for the money, I had one mature deer get spooked from the leds firing. Takes nice pics, make sure you go with a 4gb or bigger card and what Browning recommends for sd cards.

I mainly bought it for hog, but have not had the opportunity to go deer hunting yet. Although, I plan on going soon (this year)! As far as it being good for deer hunting, I read 100s of reviews before settling on this one and saw many cases where people had taken down decent size deer with it. I would think you need to be decent at tracking as I doubt you will drop it where it stands, but once you get it sighted in and can make a fairly accurate kill shot, it shouldn't be hard to find. Also, I did purchase some broadheads to go with it as well. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions and I will answer them if I can. ;)By the way, I assembled it in under 10 minutes. Very Easy!

PIR. However, FWIW, I have had trail cameras since they first came out. This is the worst one I've ever owned. I've set it up, walk tested to get the blinking light, then to "ON" and subsequently watched game walk by and "No picture". I suggest you get a real trail camera, e.g., Bushnell or Simmons. v

I initially purchased the SG580 and put it to the test. I ended up returning it and bought the HCO Uway GSM Wireless Scouting Camera,USM652. This is a good camera and I am very satisfied. This a good sight for doing your research. http://www.trailcampro.com/uwaytrailcameras.aspx

Its probably too late to respond and sorry, I dont use Amazon often enough to see everything. Its pretty durable and easy enough to adjust zoom/focus, I think it could work on a scouting trip. Downside is not having eyepiece at 90 degree angle. So either you need a compact but tall tripod, set scope on tall rock/table, or be in prone position. Its pretty difficult to hold scope without shaking it.

I love mine. I have caught birds in flight (Grand Canyon, Warwick Castle, England). I do not know how it would work at sporting events. I have taken evening shots w/o flash, indoors and outdoors. I had two lenses before and it was a pain. Now I can go from wide angle to zoom and I love it.

Just went Eagle watching at Starved Rock park in Illinois. I had a Canon 7D, Sigma 300mm Zoom (fully extended) with a 2X extender mounted on it. I was able to track the Eagles with great fluidity and get some great shots. Have fun!

For what this one cost I would say this is a great one for hiking. I use it for hunting myself, it keeps track of how far you have walked the path you traveled and it has a lot of extra uses. the topographical map is also great. If you know how to read the topographic part of it you know where cliffs and major hills are. All in All I love it. the only 2 suggestions I would offer to you is get the carry case that is made for it (It has a spot for extra batts) and take extra batts. It seems to not use them too fast however better safe than sorry. I hope this helped you.

I have one at my home pointing to a hunting cabin about 250 feet away from where the unit is. I have a wireless camera at the cabin and I never lose my camera. The signal is a little weak but it works. There is also all woods between the unit and the cabin. So if you have a clear shot I think you'll be in great shape. Hope this helps.

Wish I could help you Brad. Don't believe I've used the box. I feel safe without it on private property and but have it just in case. I've got access to seven Bushnell cameras (work for Mt. Fish Wildlife and Parks) and we've only on a couple occasions used a box. Had a bull elk push on off kelter recently and numerous bears (black and Grizzly) nuzzle them, but so far no damage has been done. Mike

Its pretty awesome at night. It will go into a night vision phase like the video game call of duty. I have a license plate tag reverse camera on my F150. This Pioneer ND-BC6 blows that away by far. This item is great. I hope I could help. Enjoy life and Chive on!

I used it for bike riding, hiking, deer hunting,I think because of the fast movement you might have a little blurring, also the sky is a little bright, watch out shooting towards the sun but should be able to get some good shotsand good luck on the hunt

If you want it just for video then just get the S110. The video does a lot of hunting trying to focus. plus you can hear the motor hunting in the video.

Garmin's are amazing for exactly what you want. If the user is experienced with maps, I'd recommend getting a model that offers Topographic maps which will help with route planning if they're going off-trail.

Hi, I have not put it out yet. I am waiting for the snow to melt. Then I tend to mount it to a post and monitor it with a trail camera.
