I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

It really helps when you are looking through scopes or bino's for long periods of time and it's cold, your breath will make them temporarily fog. The one I like the best is Rain X Interior Glass Anti-Fog Then why even put it on?

Half the problem and half the solution is keeping moist air away from glasses or goggles. If I had to wear a face mask (I don't when hunting) I'd look for one that deflects air away from glasses. They make face masks/breath deflectors for snowmachining that do this ... to a degree. The OP never mentioned what kind of face mask he's using which may or may not be at least part of the problem.

On a different note, there's a "donate" button on my blog now because I need financial help to see a pulmonologist so I can be cleared back to work. If anybody's interested, complete story is in sidebar at http://mytruckalogue.blogspot.com/ I use "Parker's Perfect" anti fog and it works better than anything else out there in my experience http://www.parkersperfect.com I got banned on another web site for a debate that happened on this site.

Randy www.defogitworks.com I won't say there isn't better but this is the best I've found so far. I googled some for protecting the fire gear, since you sweat, breath the whole dang thing in the mask and you get your azz chewed for bumping air into it to clear it while on standby as RIT team.... It won't last after it has moisture on it though... IE I use it on my glasses a lot, but have to redo it if I get em wet... says that on the packaging too... YOu might want to give em a call and check out the use for you. Jeff We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back.....
