John,<br>I use Coghlan nets, which are available at Wal-Mart. Yes they impair your vision a bit and take a little getting used to, but I don't like putting OFF on my neck area. You can wear them loose or tuck them under your collar. If you see a bird from a distance it gives you plenty of time to lift the net. I never notice any extra discomfort and it also adds additional concealment.<br><br>Regards

David,<br><br>Thanks for the quick answer. I'll check them out. I suspect our mosquito & gnat attacks may be over for this hunting year. But I can still try using them when I shoot clay pigeons. However, I think I'll try them when the range is least busy. I guess even my sense of iconoclasm has limits!<br><br>Thanks for the great idea.<br><br>John<br><br>

<br>Dchinell has made a very good point. I run AAs in my all my lights, AM/FM/Weather radios, and communications devices. <br><br>Mariner
