Shooting
Glasses Guide
Shooters
of all kinds require eye protection, whether at the range or
in the field. The majority of shooting activities take place
in close proximity to the face. Facing the possibility of ricochets,
flying objects (ejecting shells, etc), wind, sun and dust, it
only makes sense to use good eye protection. Although everyday
sunglasses are better than nothing, you're much better off with
a pair of protective glasses specifically designed for shooting
activities.
But
when searching for a quality pair of shooting glasses, what
factors do you look at to help make an educated purchase?
At last
count there were over 35 different brands of shooting
glasses on the market today. On top of that each
of those brands may have anywhere from 5 to 50 different models
to choose from. With all those selections, it's no wonder
people have trouble making a decision.
And the
necessary features? How do you know:
-
If you need or want interchangeable lens?
-
The best color lens?
-
What's an impact resistance rating?
-
If you need UVA/UVB protection?
-
Where you can find prescription shooting lens?
-
What's a good deal?
- What's
the best frame material?
This list could go on and on for quite some time.
