Face mask or paint?
I have wore a face mask for years. And with glass's it just don't work very well. They fog up horribly. Thinking of switching over to face paint. Think its as effective as a turkey mask? Anybody were glass'es there think they might scare turkey.

Anybody were glass'es there think they might scare turkey.
Just for this reason.
Of not spooking game while hunting.
I tryed the face camo makeup.
But it keep getting on the glass's and making a mess.
And if you get sweaty it smears and is hard to get off.
It gets on every thing you get close to.
Seat belts - truck seats etc.
Then when You or your wife gets in it gets on
Your cloths and makes a mess.
I gues the stuff there is now might be better.
But in the 80s it I wasn't a happy camper useing it.
Try contacts you might like them I do.
Good Luck

big...I have used both...both work...you could cut the top out of a face mask and just pull over your nose and leave the glasses uncovered...I think the breathing inside the mask is what fogs glasses...I sometimes notice this when using binos...

I wear glasses and don't have any probalem with a mask. The one I wear is really kind of a see through bag that ties around the neck (good for bug control too). I keep it bloused out away from my glasses and it doesn't fog them up. I only wear it when I am set up after a bird answers.

I wear glasses too and have had a little of the same problem at times. Most of the time I can fix it just by adjusting where the mask falls on my nose. I've seen a face mask just for people with eyeglasses in the Cabelas catalog but I have no idea how well it works, butit mightbe another idea for you to try.

i've used facepaint before...not that i havent liked it...but would rather not wear it now...i use a headnet...i do what beholt does....adjust it so my breath doesnt fog up my glasses...i got out of wearing facepaint due to the reactions i got from the locals...mostly those who dont believe in hunting (just one more reason to get one of those animal activists to harrass me)...and i'm not out to initiate that sorta confrontation..my camo tells them already i hunt...why get up in their faces by wearing paint?...just my way i guess...
