eyeglass frames

[Arrowcraft]

I have been having trouble with my eyeglass frames, when shooting for some reason I at times bump the corner edge that sits out away from my face . Does anyone know of frames that might wrap around your face thus not having that corner that protrudes away from face ?   Alaskan Black Wolf  Tall Tines

I wear prescription safety glasses for shooting...that might be a place to start

I'm an Optician and have helped some archers with this problem. Luckily, you have a few options.

One would be to pick out a  new day-to-day frame that's "sport-inspired" and wraps around your face closer than most. You can wear it every day as your primary frame, and it will just look a little sportier than what you may have now. My office carries frames like that from the brands you'd expect: Columbia, Nike, Adidas, etc. Most places should have something like that.

The other option would be to get a frame specifically for shooting. Look for an impact-resistant safety or sport frame from a line like Wiley X. Wiley (and other similar brands) make frames for hunting, fishing, construction, and tactical uses. The frames and lenses will be rated to stop high-impact projectiles and will fit your face as closely as possible. Hopefully you don't need the impact resistance, but more eye protection can't be a bad thing.

Hope this helps!

Another option would be to open your stance a little.  That worked for me.  Scott

Yep,open your stance a little and turn your head a little more toward the target.  You're probably looking across rather than down the arrow now. Glasses actually help me remember to do that.  When I don't get a clear vision of the target, I know I'm looking sideways at the target rather than nearly straight on.

It takes awhile but you will eventually get used to it. I altered the way I draw to avoid bumping, in time it became automatic.

It's all about the head position. You have to be careful opening your stance as it could lead to getting your shoulders pointing in the wrong direction

My (Liberty Sport F-8) frames are wrap around design.

These are superb  frames and they are strong and very comfortable and long lasting.They are black and grey in color.Thier nice looking as well.They come with a unique strap on system as well for a snug fit around the head or to hang around your neck.They have comfortable and durable rubber pads for resting on your nose as well.Mine have the transition lens for sunny days.I like the transition lens as an option for your lenses

I highly recommend them for hunting,sports and fishing.I love  mine and give them a very high rating!

You need to check them out!
