It's that time of year. You're either planning out your strategies for next year or maybe you're planning for a few late-season over the counter opportunities in the great state of Arizona. But either way, one thing we can practice and research year-round is our glassing techniques.

 

Glassing is one of the best ways to increase your success. After all, you can't hunt an animal that you can't find. The above video is a quick look at a few glassing tips that I have learned over the years to find more game while hunting.
