but yes you are right CH .....we all need to be better at identification of what we are looking at,the poll that ran on forum last year on what we each used to say it was a shootable deer was interesting and certainly made me for one stop and think/re-evaluate how I do that.
really good blaze actually stands out BETTER in low light than in bright conditions.....sometimes too much so and the reflected light on scope can be pain in arse a bit like the reflections of my workshirts in windscreen on sunny day,the reflecter strip is really bad but just the yellow/green in enough to be distracting.we first noticed this with the orange patterned fleece tees when we first got them...oh and guys please SUGGEST NICELY to your better halves they turn shirts inside out when hanging on clothsline as it helps keep UV from dulling fabric down so quickly.
