    The gloves are classic!!

    My only question is how come nobody had any eye protection on? I've personally experienced and witness multiple instances when eye protection made the difference between damage to the eye or the glasses. To include one where a friend of mine had a gun blow up that resulted in some shrapnel embedding themselves into his cheek, forehead, and right eyeglass lense.

    Teach her good habits from the get-go and you can avoid the regret that goes with a permanent eye injury. JM2CW.

    I guess it's a cold thing, because I've never got shooting glasses to fog up down hear in lovely Florida. Did you know it was almost hot enough for sun-burns today?

    As for eye protection fogging up, I've never had that problem shooting in 20 - 30 degrees weather in Georgia with shooting glasses or prescription glasses. Eyesight is not something to disregard.
