My Rudy Project Rydon's

[atek3]

My vision is pretty terrible and for the first 5 years of my shooting career I struggled trying to find a good vision solution. First I used my prescription glasses, but the lens were too small to shoot rifle (where I look out the top of my eye). So I switched to contact lens. With contacts I had a good field of view, but I kept scratching up or losing my 5 dollar shooting glasses. Plus the contact lenses gave me dry eye, so by the end of a big match I had a tough time tracking the front sight, even with eye drops.

After a particularly bad performance one evening, I said forget it, I went on BE forums and saw what everyone else was doing... Rudy Project Rydons. One of our own forum members (KGentry) hooked me up on the USA shooters pack and an RX insert. When I got back the RX Insert from Walmart I was hooked. Now I can see perfectly clearly (my contact prescription had no correction for my mild astygmatism). When lighting conditions change I can switch between my clear lens and Racing Red lens in 30 seconds. I have a full field view I can use with rifle and pistol.

Best of all, I paid a lot of them, so I take much better care of them than my cheapos.
