The main problem is the Fogging up when you get warm in cold weather or wearing a mask , but also getting a camo peaked cap to fit proper without catching them too . Might go with Contact lenses next time .

I have not been able to find any anti fogging product that works for me.My prescription lenses are some type of plastic,so that may be the reason.
I saw the biggest buck in my life while bowhunting.He had at least 14 points and maybe more.His rack was the first part of him I saw.
I had not even got to my stand yet and spotted him behind some thick brush.He did not see me and only had to take a few steps and he would have been in an opening.
I was already warm from walking and the longer I waited for him to move,the foggier my glasses got.
I then spotted 4 doe running towards him but they turned and ran up the hill.He turned and followed them up the hill without giving me a shot.As foggy as my glasses were,I'm not sure if I could have seen well enough to take a shot.

I have always worn glasses and have not had a problem.. but finally am at that point where I need bifocals. I opted to not get bifocals and instead have one pair for distance and another pair for computer. This works for me (close up I dont need glasses).
I am thinking of getting a good pair of distance sport glasses for outdoor/hunting. Oakley has been recommended.. but if anyone has other suggestions I would appreciate.
