Got my first pair of glasses last year, don' t need them for reading or close distances. Last season I hunted without them because of fogging up in cold weather with a warm facemask on. What works, anti-fog wipe on, spray, etc.?
Father time has decided to play a joke on me at long range(past 25 yards). I want to split a hair at longer distances while bowhunting.........not hit the bull in the arse!

Cougar I tried creams, soaps, sprays, and wipes, but so far nothin has worked for me when usin a face mask. not even a 1/2 mask. that' s why I went back to face paint. a good quality anti-fog spray will help in cold weather as long as your not usin a mask.

Glasses and fask mask is a problem period.
I know first hand. I have tried anti-fog and even left my glasses out over night in the elements so there wouldn' t be cold to hot transition. A face mask just traps too much air. I find that I have to slit my face mask a bit at the bottom and breath out the bottom of the mask to keep them from fogging. Really a pain but face painting does work.
I find that if I leave my binoculars out in the weather they don' t fog up other than the first time I take them out. Leave window cracked a bit or put them in bed of truck or the toolbox keeps the temperature close to the outside air and has lead me to fewer fog ups. Hope it helps

If you can do it try the contacts. I hate when I have to wear my glasses due to an eye problem or irritation. I' ve tried every type of anti-fog I could find in my area and have never found any that work satifactorily
Hoping to get surgery one of these days and won' t have to worry about it any more
