The guy that hunts here with me made us some game camera holders. Not too many straight mesquites around here. What do y'all think?

Yea, pigs. That's why we put feet with holes to stake down.

Looks like they should work. I find T post mounting clips work well too

Have some of those too at protein feeders. But I wanted some that were easy to more around for the corn feeders that aren't penned.

You can rarely get a stake to go down 4" in my country.

Will they spin around if bumped by a cow? Cows keep me busy with my cameras on my lease

They will be staked down, and close to a tree, I don't think so.

set them in or near cactus and the pigs/cows will be less likely to mess with them

Very little pear on my place, I sprayed mine several years ago. But I have a plan, they'll be fine.

I made mine out of a 4' section of a treated 4x4 in a 5 gallon bucket filled with sand- "easy" to move around but I don't have to worry about cows knocking them over.

Looks good, might have been better if he used square metal tubing so the back of the camera would flush up to it better.

Iike the holders...looks great. If I make a camera stand I would expand the width of the base to keep them from toppling over.

I like round better. That way you can tweak the cam a little side to side as needed. When I use tpost I duct tape pvc pipe to the post grooves then attach cam to the pvc.
