This is something that i was looking for also...i am not sure about this though..
 
I have seen a video on line ,A young bloke had a video camera on a remote controled car.
this was made for it and was going over some shitty ground,and jumps so ill try find out about it and let yas no Homework time lol
 
Mine is in the mail.
I'll test it before it goes to Africa and hopefully show you what it looks like from a bow.
 
Try searching for the Roscoby "Riser Cam" it mounts where the stabilizer screws into your riser.

Bowhunger, here is the link to the video I just shot after getting the new camera GOPRO HERO.
(GoPro Official Store: Wearable Digital Cameras for Sports)

Doing some bow practice while wearing it as a helmet cam. I need to clean it up and get a little more proficient at uploading it, etc
I'll get it on the bow shortly.

Hey Bowhunger,

I am not sure if this will work but I am thinking of buying one to put on my little tracking dog to get some footage when he finds wounded animals. He likes to fight with them so I am intrested to see what happens. I see BRICKBURN are one i front of me but this is my plan.... It is the GOPRO camera I have in mind as well.

What do you think about putting the camera on the dog while he is tracking?

Best regards,

Jacques
 
Brickburn, pretty nice group you shot there. Can't wait to see more options from the other fellas looking into this. Interesting.

Sorry for the delay in replying.
This is taken from a simple rig they have for putting it on your head. It is also inside the waterproof case so the sound is a little muffled.

I wanted one that I could watch the animals not just have it one the bow. But, I'll see if I can get it onto the bow just to see what the video would look like.

I have an old pack for the dogs that I am going to try and put it on. Not sure how to do it yet but I can't wait to see what Pheasant flush looks like from the dogs view point. I should be able to accomplish this in the next few weeks at a field trial.

No issue: I paid 299 USD shipped.

Thanks on the group. Been practicing for a while with the new limbs and finally settling in. A little loose from 50 yards, but got some more time to get that down.
The neighbours all know to look both ways before they head out of the house. :)
 
like the Epic cam as well thanks avat
 
I have Epic, and now I will use this camera on my buffalo hunt in Zimbabwe.
 
Hi Bowhunger.
Search on web for : i-KAM XTREME® Video Eyewear Fantastic result, and really fun to use when
hunt, or what what.....
Kind regards
Michael

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
Thanks,
