i have never tried it yet, but that is because i just got a camcorder this year. but my dad and I are gonna try to get a couple of does on tape this year. we will see how it turns out, i got a samsung scd-67 digital camcorder, i think the quality will be pretty good, considering about the farthest shot will be 40 yards or less. i guess time will tell, goodluck huntin this year!!
