RE: Need a new scope?????
After trying and shooting 3 other brand Scopes I found one I really like.
I purchased a Classic Scope and have been very pleased with it.
They offer a choice of Scope Houseing Size. They alsooffer the option of using many different pin locations in the housing since it is drilled out to allow you toplace the pin in he up position or the , down pin, side pins etc.You will also have to decide on what size fibers you will be using they offer all the standard sizes and even the small .010 size fibers.Classic Scopes produces some of the brightest Fibers I have ever used and you will need to decide on the color of fibers to purchase with your scope I personally prefer the Green, Red and Clear that can be used with a colored sight Light.You will need to decide on the type of Zeiss lense you will be using in your scope the Convex or the Plano and what power lense. I also prefer to have the lenses treated for Anti Glare and Scratch Resistance. I like the fiber housing wrap that will hold the fiber wrapped in a protective plastic tube that wrapps around the sight housing and exposes the fiber to the max amount of light, if the fiber is gathering to much light to the point that the fiber starburst's you can slide a piece of peep tubing or shrink tube ( but dont shrink it ) and slide it on the fiber plastic tube to reduce the amount of light that the fiber is exposed to. When you install the fibers in the pin make sure that you dont mushroom out the head of the fiber to much or you will make the fiber head bigger than it needs to be. I also recommend the sunshade with the classic scope, its really not a shade like most people think of it dosent mount on top of the scope.... it is a tube that will screw into the sight housing and works very effectivly.
If you have optimal eyesight you propably wont need a Clarifier peep but you may need to look through various power lenses to find what power lense will work the best for you and your needs. I personnaly use a 4 power lense for 3D and my husband uses the 4 power classic scope lense for the ASA 3D Senior Open Division. You may want to wait until you return home and take a look through various power lenses to find what works best for you, that is if you dont have this opportunity in Iraq... since they arent cheap, and can make a world of difference when shooting 3D and Indoors.You also may want to look at sight lights... they can come in real handy when shooting 3D in low light conditions or dark tunnel shots on the 3D courseor Indoors in lower light conditions. The sight lights arent very expensive and come in multiple colors... you can even pick them up at the Army Surplus shop I cant remember the name , I think it was named Ranger Joe's in Columbus Georgia. You can look at the Classic Scope Sight on the Web or just call Steve at Classic Scopes if you have any questions and I know he will be glad to help.The Classic Scope works well with my SureLoc Supreme and SureLoc Challenger Sliders.
I was just down at Columbus and Phonix City at Fort Benning in August for a week to Compete in the Archery Shooters Associations World Classic Championship near Uchee Creek Campground, Beautiful area. I didnt see any hogs but I did see a couple of nice bucks near the Uchee Creek Campground entrance. Wish you could of been there we even had a 3D Shoot that included ASA Archers and Fort Benning Archers.
The Humidity was horrible when we were there and Scope Lenses, Binocularsand Eyeglasses were fogging up badly... until I found this anti fog product its made by Nikon and sold by Lancaster Archery Supply... it's dry reusable cloths treated with a dry powder that you wipe on and it worked Fabulously. I also recommend checking with other scope shooters for their recommendations at ArcheryTalk.com they have thousands of archers on that site and tons of scope shooters and try ASA Archery Website also lots of scope shooters there that can help you.
I hope some of this will help you and be safe!
