Thread: Hand held thermal now legal on public land

i have both handheld and thermal scope on another rifle and hunt during the day with a scope. Looks like DOC have common sense sneaking in. Personally, I don't think thermal scopes will ever be legal it's seen by some as the same as a spotlight. They definitely are a game changer, not as easy as some would have you believe, but saying that when I use the thermal sight on the farms, I have access to it is not hunting more like doing a home kill. I still prefer to hunt in the daytime and most enjoyable is bush stalking up close and personal. That just me, I'm happy with the situation of being allowed to carry a handheld only on DOC land
