Slug Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 As you know a noob to the sport so which colours for which back drop ? Using the Yellow for bright sunny days which seems to make the Black clays stand out well...When overcast or dull what does everyone change too ?.. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddan Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Good question and one I would also like the offical answer to. In the past I have worn whatever feels the most comfortable which is normall Black/gray - bright sun Yellow - dull weather Red - in between the two.

the last engineer Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Lens color This really comes down to personal preferences. Lens for shooting glasses today come in a wide range of colors from dark gray or smoke to amber to purple. Some info on specific colors: Smoke, Gray and Gray-Green tints - The most common type of lens color. They are effective at blocking glare without changing color perception, making them a good choice for all-weather use. Gray is a neutral, or "true," color that allows the wearer to see all colors as they are. Gray shooting lenses do not enhance the target, but they are good in bright sunlight. Amber-Brown lens tints - Especially good at blocking the blue light commonly found in diffused light such as one might experience on a cloudy day. Amber can improve both contrast and depth perception, and is a good all-around choice for shooting or hunting. Yellow or Orange tints - Improve contrast and give a sensation of heightened visual acuity. So-called "Driving" lenses are usually amber or yellow-brown. Lenses in these hues block haze and blue light and enhance the orange color of the target. The brighter yellow the lens color is, the better it is for use at night. Purple-Vermillion tints - A light purple color, which is actually a combination of a neutral gray and a vermilion, is good for enhancing the orange of the target against a background of tall trees. Vermilion itself is useful to highlight conditions where there is poor background, such as trees, and to enhance the target against the background. If you haven't shot with purple or vermillion tint glasses, it does take some getting use to. taken from the randolph engineering site,good glasses all round. http://www.shooting-glasses-guide.com/shoo...lasses-lens.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
