cam cradle, muddy, 3rd arm, others?
which tree arm do you guys feel is the best for getting good footage as well as ease of use and transportation. I have been using a hunter cam cradle HD with the tree mount and my loaded gl2 seems to be a bit much for it (even though thats what they reccommend). IT would be be awesome for a slightly smaller camera as it is super smooth. I'm wondering what other arms are out there that will be ROCK solid for my setup.

Try the Muddy arm..................Will easily handle a loaded GL2 and more.

Get ahold of Antlerhog as he is making a very sturdy custom arm. It will hold any camera you are willing to pack into the woods. And it won't break the bank. Best arm available and affordable.

I don't see any horizontal adjustment on that arm, there is obviously vertical adjustment, but how do you handle a crooked tree?????

His arm will work on any tree in the woods. I have hunted some nasty looking stuff and never found a tree that it won't work on. It is very easy to move the bottom of the upright left or right to level it.

Is there an actual adjustment screw to move left / right or do you simply have to move the entire mount? I am purely curious about his arm and am not trying to bash it, I just don't see how it would adjust to fit a really crooked tree.

I've checked his out and they look super strong no doubt. He doesn't have any more in stock now and says it would be at least two weeks. I guess for this season I'm just gonna get by but I will efinently be lookling at his nest year too.
the other option that i've been strongly considering is the muddy arm. I like the fact that the vertical adjustment also supports the arm which to me looks like it would make it super steady.

The Muddy will fit in a backpack (that's how i get mine in the woods)...........the arm detatches from the tree bracket and folds up.
