OK I have never heard of this but was quoted it as gospel...you guys tell me
Hunter:2 down on video this past weekend. Forgot to lead more to allow for thermal delay. Also, my first shot must have hit slightly higher than I thought it would.
ME:what is thermal delay? never heard of it
Hunter:It takes probably 1/4 of a second to display what is actually happening through the thermal to your eye sight. So when animals are moving, you would need to aim about 1/4 of a second in front of them because that is where they actually are.
ME ok, never heard of such a thing, when moving you do have to lead the target properly in the first place
Hunter 30hrtz has a slight delay. 60hrtz is real time
ME OK guys...I just call that not leading enough or not following thru...old bird hunter here ...I called it a plus for you, got to shoot more and took 2 hogs down!
Hunter If it was daylight and looking through a regular scope, I wouldn't lead that far
Thought I was talking to DJ but this guy did drop 2 hogs after only 10 or so shots
