Lamping – my take on it.

[Black-spring]

been lamping 100's of times with the dogs, but now going to try and get out with the gun.
think the same steps could be usefull.

I will use a red filter to get up close then is it best to go to white light to shoot or can you shoot with the red and aim for the eye?

regards

rob,

You can shoot on the red filter , it takes a bit of getting used to but once you've done it a few times you'll be able to pick up the eye and then the rest of the head to get your aim point right. Worth having a practice on targets and paper too.

I love lamping been a while since i did it mind.

Improvised and made a red filter from a tizer juice bottle once! that worked very well!!
