Have any of you that are colorblind had any problems while bow hunting. I have heard that this makes you a better hunter because you are more focused on movement than color, and most prey have good camo. I have three problems with my eyes....problems with accomodation, colorblindness, and worse eyesight . I am trying to narrow down exactly what is going on when I am shooting. if i shoot at a target i am one after another right down the pipe. When deer hunting (esp in low light) I have a hard time finding the target when looking at the sights, and hard time seeing the sights when focusing on the deer. This happens more when bowhunting, and doesn't include scope shooting, just open sights.
I am soon getting glasses to take this out of the equation. that leaves me with colorblindness, and the issue of loss of accomodation. I don't think there is a cure for either, but maybe a way to minimize the effects? also, with accomodation, is this more pronounced during periods of heightened adrenalin activity? (rushing my shot isn't the problem, as I mostly wait for a good shot).
anyone with good advice would be nice, as I narrow down the reason for my problems in the field.
