Whitetail’R® has been a brand in the industry that has developed new products that help hunters succeed in their quest, but the owners of Whitetail’R know that success begins with a means to an end, solving problems.This new six foot waterproof SnakeEYE Camera allows expert shooters and weekend snipers to check the barrel and actions of their guns to make sure that there is no debris to stop them from contacting the kill zone of big game or the “10 ring” of a target. Thanks to ground breaking camera technology, this 5.5mm waterproof lighted camera allows a shooting advocate to slide the “eye” of the SnakeEYE down to the barrel or into the firearm’s action, viewing, taking pictures or videos using your Android based smartphone or tablet to give shooters the confidence they need to make shot every shot count.

“Finally we can get that close-up view of our equipment right on our phone, tablet or laptops,” said Scott Matheson, President, of Whitetail’R. “Hunters and competition shooters alike can now take that next step to help ensure that the reason they didn’t make that shot count was not due to their equipment failing.”

As a bonus, this $59 flexible tool can check anything that needs a look in tight spaces, from a truck’s wiring, an ATV’s transmission, to a plumbing or electrical problem at home. Read more
