How have you been Doug? Haven't seen you for a while. I want to borrow you Rick Welch DVD some time. I will lone you my MOBB3
Mature bucks get mature because they bust you for all kinds of reasons. Maybe it wasn't even your glasses. Try and stay in the shadows and sun to your back when you can. A hat to shade your face will help. I have one of Big Jim's wire brim hats. It is short bill, and I can bent the corner out of the way of the string. That could help some.
I have only ever been in bow range of 4 large older bucks. They all gave me the slip one way or the other, and none of them busted me. They just seem to be able to make the right choices when it is critical.
My eyes are getting to the point I may need to start wearing my glasses to hunt. Can't count point anymore at distance unless it is a bigger buck. I keep having to pass the basket rackets because I can't spot brow tines and small beam points until it is too late. I took the glasses out on two hunts this year, and wow the woods was 3D. :eek: Now if I can just figure out how to shoot without hitting them and shifting them out of place when I hit anchor. It will be a pain to hunt with glasses, but much better than not being able to see what you need to see.
