Thinking about getting the hogster 25 to use as a scanner. I have a wraith on the gun with wicked lights 850 IR for shooting. I hunt the desert and mountain areas.. in the flats and foothills the desert sage, cacti, joshua trees, and other bushes can get really thick and up to waist or even chest high at times. If I hunt the mtn canyons and cliffs too...cats, and yotes can be high on the sides/cliffs 200 to 300 yards out.
I'm curious to see what y'all think of the hogster 25 as a thermal scanner for this type of hunting and terrain. Most of my shots have been 125 or less. But in the past I have hesitated on shots around 200 to 250 because I couldnt ID what the eyes were on the mtn sides. (prolly were cats, but could have been bighorn sheep too) This will be my first year using the wraith. I used wicked red lights before.
