    Any one have any advice on how to keep my glasses from fogging? They are eyemart glasses so not the highest quality...

    Don't quote me on the brand, but there are anti fog wipes that they sell on airsoftgi.com. I used to play and they worked pretty good. I think they are made by Annex, but I'm not sure on that.

    That's why I switched to contacts for hunting years ago.

    Sadly I cannot get contacts. I had Lasik 10 years ago and it has worn off. Since they cut your eye it then slightly looses its circular shape on the front and become flatter thus contacts wont adhere well. I tried but the slide all over the place and then start to hurt... I'm stuck with glasses until I can afford Lasik again (with a doctor who offers lifetime touch ups).

    cheep fix we use scuba diving to keep our mask from fogging... non abrasive toothpaste (not the gel stuff)... rub it on, then wipe it off

    Only time my glasses have fogged hunting is when I have some facemask on. I just make sure my mask is vented to keep my hot air from going up under the mask onto my glasses.

    The anti-fog stuff works but it isn't 100%. Glasses are a PITA.

    My oldest boy fought this last season. He missed a great chance to kill a nice buck. He was fine until he got excited and was looking down the scope. He kept saying "Dad, I can't see him. This was toward the end of shooting hours so I thought that was the issue. The buck gets skittish and leaves. My boy turns and looks at me and his glasses are completely fogged over. He is 10 and is wearing contacts now. With all the sports he plays its just so much easier. Bummer you can't wear contacts!
