Default Video screw up

Ameristep1.JPG
I slipped into my brand new Doghouse popup at about 5:10 p:m yesterday evening in hopes that I would be able to stick a hog on video. I got my camera all set up and settled in to wait for a hog. My feeder went off an hour later. Ten minutes after the feeder went off I saw a group of hogs sneeking through the weeds towards my feeder. I turned on the camera and pushed the record button. I let the hogs come in and start eating before I came to full draw. I settled my sight pin on the biggest hog and touched off the release. The rage three blade blew through the hog and he only ran about 15 yards before falling over dead. I looked at the video and rewound it to watch it again after I had recovered my hog. I was excited to get everything on video so when I was walking up to the hog I hit the record button forgetting that I had rewound the tape and recorded over the video of the shot. The picture is the hog I had on video until I screwed up.

Bweger, I know how you feel. The last time I went to Canada hunting black bear, I had a wolf come into my bait. It was not wolf season, so I was going to video the wolf. I hit the record button and thought I was recording the whole time. After I got back to the cabin, I went to watch the tape, and found nothing on it. I had hit a button that would require you to hold down the record button to video. Man, was I mad at myself.
