This is the mount that I use. Jeff is a great guy with a great product. As for the camera, I use a Sony Handy Cam, the same one that Jeff uses in his YouTube videos.

I put a thread on here about a month ago of a YouTube video of me shooting it just at dark at my deer target.

Now then, get your equipment, your quiver and bow, and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.

When mounted on the Crossbow does the camera shake quite a bit when you shoot making the video Jittery?

Here's a link to the practice video that I shot, judge for yourself. The shot was taken at 30 yards on my knees using a Primos shooting stick.

ATN SHOT TRAK HD. Mounts on a picatinny or weaver rail. Best position to mount it is on an Excalibur Tac Pac rail. Placed here your can turn it on or off with just your thumb, without having to relocate any hands on your bow when you are in a shooting position.

Deer was 25-30 yards away in this video (did not shoot this deer): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-g8tJcnWgY

Target shooting at 20 and 30 yards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukduk99OPn8

I too use the Shot Trak HD attached to an Excalibur TAC PAC. I like the simplicity and 5X zoom. I find the shake at trigger pull to be acceptable. Here is a practice video and coyote kill. Still waiting for first deer kill on film!!!!!!
