Browning Trail Camera Field Mount BTC-CFM

Browning Field Mount

The Browning Field Mount gives you a reliable way to install a trail camera in locations where there is no convenient tree, fence post, or T-post. Designed for open terrain, this rugged steel mount stakes directly into the ground, creating a dedicated platform for positioning your trail camera exactly where you need it.

It is particularly useful for monitoring food plots, agricultural fields, field edges, open trails, wildlife crossings, and other areas where traditional tree mounting isn't practical. Instead of changing your camera location to accommodate available trees, the Field Mount lets you place the camera where the animals are actually moving.

Mount Two Trail Cameras in One Location

One of the biggest advantages of the Browning Field Mount is its ability to hold up to two trail cameras on a single mount. This can provide broader coverage from one location without requiring two separate mounting systems.

Using two cameras can also be useful when you want to monitor different directions, cover a larger area, or use different camera settings for the same location. Each camera can be positioned independently using its own gimbal mount.

Adjustable Gimbal Mounts

Proper camera positioning is critical to getting useful trail camera images. The Field Mount features adjustable gimbal mounts that allow you to fine-tune the angle of each camera after installation.

This gives you considerably more control than simply placing a camera on a fixed stake. You can adjust the camera toward a deer trail, crossing, food plot, or other area of interest and make independent adjustments when using two cameras.

The ability to adjust the camera angle is particularly useful in open areas where there may be few natural objects to use for positioning.

Rugged Steel Construction

The Browning Field Mount is constructed from powder-coated steel for durability in outdoor environments. The all-steel design provides a solid mounting platform while the powder-coated finish is suited to repeated use in the field.

Because the mount is designed to be staked into the ground, it can be moved as scouting conditions change. This makes it useful for hunters who reposition cameras throughout the season as deer patterns, crops, food sources, and other conditions change.

Where to Use a Trail Camera Field Mount

The Browning Field Mount is especially useful in areas such as:

• Food plots
• Agricultural fields
• Open deer trails
• Field edges without nearby trees
• Wildlife crossings
• Pastures
• Open woodland clearings
• Property boundaries
• Other locations where trees and T-posts aren't available

For deer scouting, an open field or food plot can be an excellent location for a field-mounted trail camera. Position the camera to take advantage of the expected direction of travel and use the adjustable gimbal to center the most important area within the camera's detection zone.

Why Use a Field Mount Instead of a Tree Mount?

A tree is often the easiest place to install a trail camera, but the best scouting location doesn't always have a suitable tree. This is particularly true around food plots, agricultural fields, pastures, and other open areas.

The Browning Field Mount eliminates that limitation. Rather than moving the camera to the nearest tree, you can stake the mount directly into the ground near the area you want to monitor.

Who Should Use the Browning Field Mount?

The Browning Field Mount is a good choice for hunters and wildlife observers who need to put a trail camera in an open area without relying on a tree or fence post.

It is particularly useful when scouting food plots and agricultural fields, where the most productive camera location may be several yards away from the nearest tree. It is also a practical option for hunters who want to run two cameras at one location and aim them independently.

Because the mount can be moved, it can also be useful for seasonal scouting. A camera can be positioned over a food source early in the season and later moved to a trail, crossing, or other area as animal movement changes.

Get More From Your Trail Camera Placement

A quality mount is only part of a successful trail camera setup. Camera height, angle, distance from the target, detection zone, and the direction of animal movement all affect the information your camera collects.

Browning recommends positioning trail cameras at approximately three feet above the ground and targeting an area roughly 25 to 35 feet in front of the camera for general setups.

The adjustable gimbal on the Field Mount makes it easier to fine-tune that position after the mount has been installed. This is particularly helpful when monitoring trails or other locations where the camera needs to be precisely aimed.

Field Mount vs. T-Post Mount

The two Browning mounts solve a similar problem but are designed for different locations. The Field Mount is designed to be staked into the ground where there is no suitable mounting structure. The T-Post Mount attaches directly to an existing T-post, making it a better choice for fenced fields and properties that already have T-posts in the desired location.

If there is no tree or post where you want your camera, the Browning Field Mount provides the flexibility to put the camera directly where it needs to be.
