Default RE: It's TRUE!

I It was opening weekend here for archery and the deer have not had pressure, since last hunting season. I never had any problems other years. My treestand is around 15ft in the tree. I may try the UV killer sportswash. I just hope it works like they claim. I have heard some people say that it works by only dimming the UV reflecting dye and not eliminating it. I will give it a try sometime. The suit may have to sit off to the side until hunting season is over for that. I don't trust it after that exprience. None of my other hunting clothes would glow purple under the blb light; so I think I will stick to them. Here are some papers to read that may convience some people. I would have to try that sportswash, test it with a blb light, and then test it out in the woods to be sure if that product works at all. I think I would rather check my clothes for UV reflecting dye right away; before having to deal with sprays or spooked deer. [/align]

Here are some websites on deer vision. There are two websites on horse vision that are the same, but can give a person an idea on deer vision. I'm not saying that deer and horse vision is the same. Hope this helps a little more for the people who are interested in this thread.
