Are hog and predator hunting tournaments bad for the sport of night hunting? This is an interesting discussion that Hans and Jason discuss on today's show. Some hunters contend they are bad for the sport because they give anti-hunters more fuel to throw at the sport, while others say the tournaments decimate the hog and predator populations. On the other side of the coin many hunters see the tournaments are a fun competition for something they are already out doing and a great way to introduce new hunters to the sport. Where do you fall? Watch this weeks podcast and let us know what you think!

When it comes to buying a new thermal or night vision optic there is a lot of confusion and questions around the different body, styles of optics, as well as the different types of battery pack systems. Many people don’t know what is going to be best for their particular rifle set up and hunting situation, so for them, picking out a scope, design and battery system is like throwing a dart at a dartboard. On this episode, Hans and Jason lay out the differences in both scope designs and battery pack options. Hopefully this will help some buyers who are confused and overwhelmed with the choices.

On this episode of the podcast Jason and Hans are excited to review yet another new and amazing advance in night optics. This week we review the Pulsar Thermion Duo DXP50, that is the first hunting rifle scope to combine both a high end 640 resolution thermal optic with a 4K ultra high resolution day time optic. With this single scope you have the option of one of the best 2x base magnification thermal images on the market today and/or an amazing 4K full color daytime image at 2x base magnification as well. And if that's not enough, Pulsar built in the ability to quickly switch between the two technologies and even allows you to use both at the same by enabling the Picture in Picture feature at the top of the screen. This lets you view the opposite spectrum in the PiP as what you're viewing in the main screen. Does this sound confusing? Trust us, it's not at all, and it's one of the easiest scopes on the market to operate. Watch this review to see actual footage from the field in both day and night conditions to see what the scope is truly capable of.
