Archery Bear Season
Season Dates
October 5 through November 15: Statewide

 

Archery isn’t a big concern check for when running dogs either for training or hunting is in season

 

Right, just copied it since it was also in season...I'd love to join up, but not sure I'll be able to swing it.

 

Got to test out the new lights last night in a dark park. Pictures dont do it justice....these things are BRIGHT!


Just lasers.

 

DAAAAMMMMMMNNNNN Dave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Almost looks like you could justify wearing sunglasses at night!

 

I had to put them on to take this picture.

 

So from the original photos looks like you've got 2 combo driving on each outside, are the 4 centers are Lasers??

 

Schweet. Daylight.

But is the glare off the hood bothersome?

 

2 driving combo XL80S on each end.
Then 1 XL Pro High Speed Spot on each side.
Then two XL lasers in the dead center.

Not at all but my hood is pretty dirty. Kinda gives it a matte finish. It might be worse when I wash it. I'm thinking of wrapping just the hood.

 

Those are brighter than mine... By a little...

 

Shit I drive East in the AM to work and it's getting that time of the year that sunrise glare on the hood pushes me toward doing a matte black vinyl hood wrap just to cut down on the sun reflecting off the silver hood.

Looks like he's getting more glare/reflection off the road signs than off the actual light output!

 

Street signs are definitely a bitch. Good thing I won't be running it on the road.

 

I think the fact it’s such a quality, concentrated beam is what’s keeping glare off the hood as well. But a wrap on the hood wouldn’t be a bad idea. I want to do mine as well since starting at a white hood can be tiring on the eyes.

 

Tell me about. It's dark when I come east, but I'm heading west at 4, and the sun off of my black skewp (when it's clean) is painful!

 

Wait, so they’ll never be turned on then?! Or are you counting malls as off road.

 

Parking lots bro. Parking lots and my driveway.

 

Wrap party?!?!

 

Oh yeah West bound at 4pm, too, it's gonna start sucking with that glare too!

What do we need to do in order to get down with a GB or bulk order discount on some hood wrapping??? Between Dave, Randy, Don and me...it might be worth pursuing.

 

I know @Truggin got Mod Day space and experience...just putting that out there

Just not sure he's looking for a full wrap vs. top of the scoop aspect...but since @EatSleepTacos lives further away from the "NoVA zone" than me, I'm sure it might be a long shot.

 

I've been contemplating wrapping my entire truck.....
