    Anyone else sick the day after all-night hog hunt?

    I know that light frequency can have an adverse affect on the brain, but to last that long might be more from fatigue. You might have noticed that a lot of emergency vehicles stopped using strobe lights on their vehicles. This was for two reasons but one being that they could trigger epileptic...

    Flir removes all former armasight personnel

    I've been in several so called acquisitions to the point where when I heard the word "merger" I began looking for a new job. I was one of those brought in to try and help save a company but the power behind the money had already decided that they had made as much as they could off the product...

    Recommend me a Night Vision rifle scope under $2k

    Consider Thor HD from ATN and just don't use the extras. I admit I am using the ATN Day/Night scope which is IR not thermal, but I hog hunt open field and can get something thermal only doesn't get which is eye reflection. This was my first night, still trying to adjust the IR source light and...

    308 rated NV or Thermal scope

    Optics Planet .com has the ATN 3-14 for about that price. If you can find it on-line for less they will price match.

    Troubleshooting

    By the way, I would be interested in knowing how well that system works when you finally get it functioning properly. The ATN day/night is great for what it is so far.

    Troubleshooting

    Absolutely, you are doing something wrong. Step 1. Unpack patience under all circumstances. Step 2. REad the instructions for a 2nd, third, and forth time. Step 3. Give yourself a week to learn the steps to make it work properly. Step 4. Check your gas gauge. Seriously, my ATN is more...

    What is a used NV worth?

    If it works as good as the advertisements say and you own it, I would keep it as a backup. Especially if you travel any distance to hunt. I can't imagine traveling for hours or days to get to a hunt and arrive to find out my only scope was dead or I had forgotten something that made it work...

    New Gen II ATN 5-20

    I am still learning but I took these last night in a field I have seen a hundred times but could never see far. These were about 60-70 yards away. I was setting the light up and adjusting focus when I saw a group of about 10 overall. This was my first snapshot. I don't think I will have a...

    Davy Crockett National Forest Hunting

    Well, it has been a LONG time since I wrote in here. I am going to Davy Crockett this evening to hunt in the dark. I have YET to get a hog in the national forest. Have seen thousands of sign. No joke. But I still can't make myself violate the law. Now the state of Texas has made it...

    New Hunting Location

    Update..., I had this all wrapped up and ready to move my RV to site when others got involved and pulled the plug. Afraid of injury and law suits. I still have my son-in-laws property and we have evidence of hogs on the property so I will still move the RV up there to launch out of but losing...

    New Hunting Location

    After 4 years I finally found a spot that the landowner is begging me to hunt. They had a recent sounder destroy 3 different 3-5 acre spots where they want to plant hay this season but are not going to turn it and plant until we can eradicate the buggers. There will be a trapper in there next...

    What would you use? 10mm or a 357mag?????

    10mm is just a hot 40, which I carry simply because of the 16+1. However you will see that there is much depending on the commercial mfgr of the round, weight in grains, velocity, etc. I see 10mm and .357's running similar balistics with different makes here: http://www.ballistics101.com/

    Respond to EPA nuts

    If anyone raises the argument that lead bullets cause lead poisoning due to runoff and contamination of groundwater, I would like to cite this report from ScienceDaily.com. I know this is from 2004 but the nature of lead has not changed over the past 6000 or more years. What folks are not aware...

    Effectively hog hunting at night without nv or thermal. Revisited

    Replying to myself, I have not been hog hunting since before Christmas as I am still looking for a job. It seems the market Mr. Obama claims does not like old guys. I quit putting down that I was a Vietnam Era Veteran so we will see how that goes.

    Animal Color Blindness - The Scientific Answer

    Is this not sad? As soon as I saw the answer(s) I knew that I had simply forgotten. This is high school level and I just plumb forgot. Of course..., we send them to Dr. Dolittle for an eye exam. It is sort of like the fact that we know that fish can't see that detail either. So, why all the...
