I just wrap a piece of wire through the back brackets of my game camera and around the T post. It's been there for two years now without any problems.

I have a couple of these that I bought from Trailcampro the last time that I ordered new cameras. Multiple ways that the camera can be adjusted is a big plus. If you have a threaded insert on the bottom of your camera, these are very simple to use.

I have made a couple different ones using a chunk of treated lumber in a ready mix concrete base. Work great and are very mobile.


I work hard, drink a little and hunt when I can.

Pretty fancy stuff there. When I want to tilt mine up or down, I wedge a rock behind it. Left to right is done by just turning the camera in that direction. Keep It Simple smile

The Deerview Window guys have one.

T-post camera mount

Tie wire around a T-post is all I have done. A rock or cedar stick for adjustment.

we did that too but found a $20 stand that goes up or down, sideways, anyway you want - place it wherever you want - works much easier than tying onto a post, etc. Academy has them

I bought a camera tripod in a garage sale for $5 and used just the mast head and clamped it to a T-post with a hose clamp.

We run around 25 cameras and found these to work very well. Place anywhere and they swivel - can also raise and lower - use to bungee to a corner post, etc. This saves lots of time

I done this, use a treated 2x6 8-10" long use pipe clamps through the wood and around the T post then mount the camera to the wood (shim as needed).
If to rocky to drive T post, fill pail with concrete with T post in middle and then the wood, good if no cattle.

iI have a couple from Gunnyart. solid product at a decent price. My covert cams doent exactly work well with them due to the back of the camera having bumps. it angles the cam to far down.

i was looking for something else and stumbled on this little do it yourself gem...
http://cambushcamo.com/blogs/news/9586237-do-it-yourself-trail-camera-mount


has both wood/tree and t post instructions. I am going to make a couple up and stick them out next lease trip.

I have always thought the camera mount needs to be stout enough for at least a squirrel's weight without upsetting its aim.

Off topic, but whats the purpose of the panels flat on the ground? Is it to help keep critters from digging a hole out under the feeder or something?

Yes, sir. That is a 16' Cattle Panel cut in half. I put them down as you see and it keeps the hogs from rooting underneath the feeder. It has worked admirably for years.

That particular season the feeder had at least 20 hogs every night for two months straight. No rooting.
