contacts?
i got contacts a few months ago. i just got my bow and noticed that they cause a blur. probably because the way im turning my eyes im catching the side of the lens or something. i noticed the same thing on open sight rifles and when i turn my eyes sideways i notice the same thing. i hate wearing glasses but that may be the only option unless you guys can help. anyone else wear contacts and notice that?? any fixes or ways around it?? thanx

RE: contacts?
hmmm thats odd. i thought maybe it was a part of having contacts. i dont know what to do since i have about 8 months supply left. the Dr looked at them in my eye and everything and said they were perfect...hmmmmm thanx guys....maybe i gota learn to use them. i just got them in late may i think it was. i wont lie i only put them in a couple days a week. when i wake up early for work i just cant fidgit with them to put them in. maybe i just need practice! or you could be right and they just dont fit my eyes......

RE: contacts?
Make sure you have them in the correct way...if you don't it will cause your vision to blur. If thats good...the only thing I can think of is that you should try adjusting your ancor somehow so you aren't looking through at an angle. I'm trying to think how I shoot...I'm pretty sure I turn my entire head and look straight on.
Having hunted archery both with glasses then contacts, I can without a doubt say that contacts are better. Try to figure them out instead of just going with the glasses. Contacts won't fog up from heavy breathing when a big buck walks infront of you

RE: contacts?
The only problem I have ever had with mine was when it was windy. If you are staring a long time looking for deer sometimes they dry out and you have to blink a bunch of times to see clear again. Maybe you're not blinking for a long time and they are drying out when you shoot.
