Jack, June 2008, HCO SG550 does its job! - I bought a pair of camo HCO SG550s…The
reason I bought these was because they were small and easy to conceal. I have had
major problems with trespassers and vandals. They recently stole a gate, so the SG550
is parked nearby. Well, it did it's job. They were oblivious to the camera. Based
on all the information I have, I doubt these guys were the ones who stole the gate
and tore down treestands, but they were clearly trespassing. Those 5MP really let
you zoom in on identifying features! I'll be calling the Sheriff's office tomorrow!
Florida
, July 2008 - This is a great example of the possibilities of the HCO scout guard
sg550. Security in a city environment. This is a condo property which I have in south
florida . Second floor looking down on dumpsters for the roofing company doing work
on the building. This dumb neighbor thought he could get away with throwing out sofas
and beds from his second story balcony then sneak down and throw them in the dumpster
without getting caught! Well guess what? The grass camo sg550 saw him in the act!
Dan , Virginia , August 2008 - Guy's my neighbor who is a major tobacco farmer asked for my help a couple of weeks ago. It seems that someone has been stealing gas and diesel from his underground tanks. He does not lock his pumps so it was easy for them to pull up in the wee hours and help them selves. They were stealing fuel on the average of twice a week for two vehicles. One gas,the other diesel amounting to app. 160 gals per month. We set up my new HCO ScoutGuard before it was even fully programmed. IT GOT'EM!! They admitted to the theft's and are now sitting in jail. He just brought my camera back to me this evening and told me the news.

Las Vegas , November 2008 - HCO ScoutGuard helped link the fellow with dozens of other cabin break ins and gun thefts. (Keep an eye out for the story in the Marquette, MI news!) - My buddy here in Vegas bought his Dad, who lives in the UP of Michigan, a new HCO ScoutGuard 550 trail camera for his birthday. My buddy's dad is a bit older, and not used to modern technology, so he was hesitant at first to do much with the camera. Eventually, however, he began fooling around with the camera and got to liking it. His dad belongs to a LARGE hunting club, which has a substantial amount of land in the Lake Huron area. There are numerous hunting cabins on the property, an armed guard at the gate to go into the club, etc. The last time by friend's father was at his cabin, he left his ScoutGuard camera sitting on a book case, facing his gun cabinet. The sheriff called him yesterday to report the sad news that his cabin had been broken into, and it looked like the thief had stolen his guns. My buddy's dad told the Sheriff, "I had a trail camera in the cabin." The sheriff told him the cabin had been pretty well ransacked and that he's confident the camera would be gone, but the two rode up to the cabin anyway. There was the camera, sitting on the shelf!! They took the SD card out to the Sheriff's cruiser and popped it into the Sheriff's laptop computer. 170 photographs!! After about 3 photos, the Sheriff says, "Hey, I know that guy!! He's a logger up on Sims road." By the time they got to town, the Sheriff had a search warrant waiting for him. (NOTE: when my friend's father told the Sheriff that he had a trail camera set up in the cabin, the Sheriff said, "Oh, too bad. It was at night." So my friend's dad told him about the night vision. The theft occurred at night, and in fact, after a few minutes the thief lights a lantern, and the photos only got better!! ) The two men went to the logger's trailer, popped the door lock with a crowbar and found over 150 guns in the trailer. My friend's dad was able to identify several guns that belonged to him. The Sheriff then proceeded to the logging camp, hauled the fellow out of his vehicle and threw him to the ground and put cuffs on him. The Sheriff had to confiscate the SD card, but my buddy's dad said that was OK by him. They have now linked the fellow with dozens of other cabin break ins and gun thefts. I guess the guy was casing the cabins while he was logging during the day, and making the rounds to steal stuff at night. Chalk up another one for the HCO Scout Guard!!!
