    Default Where do you guys mount your action cams on your bows?

    Going to be mounting it for my first bow hunt of the season. Where do you put yours? I was thinking either the head strap mount, or perhaps the sticky pad that affixes directly on the bow.. But where would I put it? Upper limb?

    Btw, I own the GoPro knockoff - the SJ4000

    The problem with the headstrap is the bow gets in the way and blocks the view. Best to get it out infront of the bow.

    I use an actual mount, that attaches to the bow.

    There is also a company called bow finger that makes some cool mounts

    I wouldn't be using the adhesive pads directly on any part of my bow.

    If your GoPro knockout uses the same mounts as GoPro, pick yourself up a GoPro Bikepost mount and clamp it around your stabilizer.

    Do you not get vibration in the video as you fire the shot and the stabilizer does it thing? I would think clamping to that, would cause movement, and quite a bit.

    I actually don't do it myself. But I know it's a convenient way to mount a GoPro. I actually use the bikepost mount bolted through the quiver mount hole on the top section of the riser, and have the GoPro pointed back at myself. I use a camera arm with video camera to take video of game. Then stitch the 2 videos together like this (doe I took last October).
