Anyone else use them.. results? do they work? Quote Link to post

Stevebeno 0 Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 i use an orange filter on my tracer max found that the red filter didnt let enough light through it and the rabbits where more difficult to see. The orange filter is now due a change so will be trying other colours like green to keep them rabbits guessing. Quote Link to post
