    Apparently deer can see blue/purple very well?

    I've been thinking long and hard about this one and we are flogging a dead horse , I'm thinking and yes there a flaws but hear this out . Modern tec now , why can't there be a compatable fabric with say optics . A bit like the polorised sunnys , but when you look through the scope it reacts with it , ie glows or reflects . Not a quick solution but not out of the question. Open sights well your F#%ked sorry to say . Thoughts anyone ? .

    FYI, flicked on to this yesterday... good to see a company actively looking at ways to reduce hunting accidents. Along way to go, but its a start.

    New Zealand business start-up Hunter Safety Lab is working with Industrial Research Limited to develop technology to reduce hunting accidents. CEO Michael Scott talks about the value of this research and development partnership.
