got busted this year twice by deer and both times it was when i tried to hunt with my photo grey glasses on.

i have to wear my glasses to see up close and read. i can shoot for short periods of time without them and thought i would try them hunting. both times i got busted without moving a muscle for no apparent reason. they didn't wind me. they eyed me and turned and left.

anybody know if the lenses being dark could be a problem?

Reflection off the lenses I would say. A lot of guys need to hunt with glasses with no problem but if you don't need to why ad the chance. I was going to wear my polarized lenses but gave it a second thought because of reflection.

I wear glasses but I wear contacts for hunting and or shooting.

right you are about why take the chance. so i didn't take the chance anymore this season.

but the day that i have to uses them all the time is coming. i just turned 40 and probally sooner than later i will have to.

so you are saying that it was the reflection and not the dark lenses.

why i ask about the dark lenses is because of the deal about ground blinds without netting serams to spook deer. BRU

i wear polarized sunglasses in the woods. however i wear a hat to shade my glasses.

i swear by using colored lens to improve contrast.

you can find some hunting caps with a shorter bill. usually they go by bird hunting caps.

Thats what I would figure it its!! I've noticed that most have
some type of glare, or reflection, regardless of the color of the
lense!!!

The glare would be my vote also.

There's always Lasik surgery.

Same here. You should never look directly at a deer with or without glasses untill you're ready to shoot. If you do they're gonna bust you. :-x

thanks guys. i guess i will have to hunt without the glasses until i have to. let me get this straight. there is not a coating for glasses that will not glare or glint. the very reason i wore my photo greys were i thought they wouldn't do that. BRU

I believe that they mean no glare to the individual wearing the
sunglasses! I've even noticed on some, the frames have a
glare to them!

DItto that. I cant shoot with my glasses on. I tried, just cant do it. That being said, reflection could be the culprit.

Glare off the glasses is my vote also. I have gotten busted after I had to wear glasses. After I went to a groundblind with the screens it has solved my glare problem.
