Thread: Josh James Thermalling???

Love watching deer thru thermals feeding towards you in pitch black darkness,no moon,say 200yds away.As long as you are still looking over the broom tops with yr black face on,you are fine.Start walking slowing say 2 mtrs left in pitch black darkness,you are busted.Theyv got amazing eye site(thermal i reckn),even 200yds away and you out in the open standing still.They will stop and watch you for a couple of minuts,check you out.Great fun watching,i dont shoot them all.Just a small eater for the freezer now n then.

I usually manage within about 150 meters with disruptive pattern camo head to toe and a cover over the scope backlight. Moving when the moon is clouded. They see us just fine so many rods in a deers eye. I took a few mates for stalks wearing solid colours. Might as well be carrying a disco ball.

Josh does a lot of product reviews, I doubt that thermal was his own or something he uses regularly. He was hunting with a mate of his, that is the first time I have ever seen him talk about a thermal.
