Have you ever tried to contact the customer service department of an online store and had to speak to someone in another country who had no idea what they were talking about? I most certainly have, and I know it can be frustrating! Have you ever sat back and wondered who the real people behind the scenes of your favorite website were? If you have ever wondered who is behind the scenes here at Trailcam.com, look no further!
Todd Graf is the founder and President of Hunting Network LLC, which owns and operates Trailcam.com. As a successful businessman and serial entrepreneur Todd has developed numerous hunting-related websites, most notably HuntingNet.com. As the Internet's largest hunting community HuntingNet.com has been around since 1995 and currently reaches over 3.5 million unique visitors each year. With the sale of HuntingNet.com in 2007 Todd has shifted his focus towards creating a large network of individually focused websites, beginning here at Trailcam.com and expanding during the fall of 2008 to Bowhunting.com. Todd's passion for hunting as well as technology naturally lead him to take up an interest in trail cameras. A self-admitted trail camera junky, Todd has owned just about every make and model of trail camera on the market and relies heavily on his cameras not only to keep him busy during the off-season, but for inventorying the bucks in and around his hunting areas as well.
I met Todd for the first time in the spring of 2004 and began working for him at his IT Consulting business later that summer. As someone who grew up chasing whitetails around the woodlots of Northern Illinois having the opportunity to be a part of HuntingNet.com was a dream come true. I had some exposure to trail cameras via my dad who had two older 35 mm units, but my real exposure didn't come until Todd gave me my first CamTrakker unit. Since then I've been hooked on trying to get as many photos of big bucks as possible. And while I may not always be successful at getting pictures of them, or killing them for that matter, I sure have a good time trying! I current 4-5 run different trail cameras during the summer and fall months, while testing and writing reviews for as many more here at trailcam.com.
Our goal for Trailcam.com is to provide a resource for hunters and other trail camera enthusiasts to share information and read real-life reviews about products that we all use. We are not sponsored by any trail camera companies and our opinions are completely unbiased and based on our own personal observations, or those of our staff. We believe that the power of the Internet is in the facts and real-life experiences that we all have. If you are having problems with a camera or accessory, tell us about it. If you have been pleasantly surprised with the performance of a camera or accessory, we want to know about that too. Keeping people informed about our experiences will help others avoid the mistakes we have made, and make more informed purchasing decisions. We encourage everyone who visits the site to participate in the forums, leave feedback and comments in the blog, or send us an e-mail. If you have a crazy photo you want to share, or an experience you want people to know about, let us know! We built this site for you, so let us know what we can do to improve on it.

We might not have the answer to all your questions, but we will certainly do our very best to find them out. We are here Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Central Time. And if you call during the fall and we're not here, chances are we're out in a treestand somewhere!
