Is that the factory IR or are you supplementing with something? What distance?

I'm impressed with the X-sight for the price point. Definitely usable.

yeah, I agree.

this was my second kill this week using the night mode.

when I got it, I wasn't expecting military grade night vision.

so far I've been happy.

Went out for one last hunt of the 2016 season before we head back to minnesota for the year. told my dad there was a big boar hog coming in late, and he needed to stay off the cell phone.

I was pretty surprised the hog didn't even break 200 lbs.

yes, its hot, and muggy in east texas tonight.

Don's multiple hogs.jpg

Friend of mine that goes to Texas to hunt quite a bit. He has land, access to land, friends, etc. in Texas and they exterminate hogs every chance they get by any means they can. If they keep any, they stay in the 100-125 pound range for eating and have been at his house on Lake Washington when he has had a whole hog at maybe 25-35 pounds on a rotisserie, good eating.

Hogslayer, Your hog needs to see a dentist.
