Let's take a look at how this thing works in the dark.

Day 4 and I'm on the tree line at 18' looking into the open field and at about 30 yards is a mature crabapple tree. Apples are still hanging but only at about 7', just out of the reach of our friend the whitetail deer.



It's 6:48 am EST and pitch black. Zulus scope is in Night mode with the 940 nm illuminator on and set to low (it automatically comes on at the low setting)

Same spot at 6:46 am EST. The Zulus is set to Night mode with the 940 nm illuminator turned off. This is the super stealth mode for low light IMO.

You've heard this before Same spot at 6:45 am EST. The Zulus is set to Day mode and the color image is grainey and not very clear. Remember, it's pitch black out.

Here is one more low light video of a buck at about 120 yards coming my way to 60 yards and meeting some does.

My conclusion, which has been consistent with this digital technology since 2016, is the usability of these scopes with the low light Day and incredible Night mode light gathering ability is exceptional. One of the most challenging aspects of bow hunting just got a little more manageable. Now toss in the LRF and video recording....... Priceless!

Great video footage....the only thing left for one of you guys to post is a actual a couple "daytime" and especially " nightime" video in these different modes, just like you did in these videos.....just shoot a target with a lighted nock preferably.....thanks

Rich,

Thanks for the info.
If you know, once the warranty has elapsed, is help available for t&m?

Were trying.....

There's a Day video in the initial post. The videos of the young buck at the crabapple tree are: 1. Nightime With Illumination 2. Nightime Not Illuminated 3. Day

Here's a FarmDeer video teaser....

Just ordered one about an hour ago. Anxiously awaiting the chance to play with it.

Looking forward to your thoughts any questions just ask.

I just picked one up too. Need to figure out ballistics.

Shoot me a pm and we can connect tomorrow here or on the phone and I can talk you through some of the steps.

It's still supported. Tech engagement as normal, repair is a cost basis affair for labor and material. Let me see if Brawler1588 has any more detail.

Wow thanks TX_RDXguy. Great information and vids. I feel my wallet getting a bit lighter😁👍

Got mine yesterday too. Mounted, balistics table uploaded, ready to do the zero tonight. Image looks great! I am curious about the battery cap. Mine is extremely difficult to unscrew. Very tight threads, almost feels like cap is not quite round? There is a tight spot on each turn if that make sense. Anybody else have this issue?

I'm one of the weird red state people when it comes to high tech scopes

I received mine yesterday first off. I want to say I was very impressed on the packaging scope. It’s packaged in the box with what I think it’s high density foam to me. That’s great attention to detail for ensuring that the scope doesn’t get damaged shipping.
I did mount scope last night temporarily just to see how it looked while the batteries was charging. This morning I removed the scope brought it to work with me today. Hopefully, I’ll have time today to get the ballistics uploaded.
Possibly this weekend has time to zero And shoot it. To be continued.

Sidenote, one thing I did notice the manual that comes with the scope in the box is smaller so it fits in the package without folding for older eyes. It’s a little hard to see even with glasses.
On their website, they do have a PDF file manual that you can download. I had done this when I ordered the scope printed out in color and placed the three ring binder much easier to read. This could be helpful for some folks.

You guys must be pretty close to me if you made the trip to Hunters Outlet!

Side question, Was the early morning video taken before or after your morning picture?

They had to drive right past my house to get to Ten Point.

I have put the 3-12 Zulus in the cart and removed it probably four times now. I'm slow to make a commitment

I’m there as well with my vision TR and printing the manual or some pages of it is simple common sense genius. That will happen for me today after work. Good tip!

My cap was crazy tight too. Imprinted finger tips and finally tapped to break free.

It would add a new experience to your hunting if you enjoy the video capabilities not to mention what night vision offers.

The video is a big add for me. Been wanting a way to film but no add on has caught my eye. This looks incredible. Very interested in what the video looks like when a shot is taken (how "shocky" it looks)

For those having problems reading small print, one can go to a drug store
or some groceries stores or Wal Mart and purchase reading glasses that
come in various powers. One can try them out in the business to select
the ones a person requires.
Wishing you all the best.
Take care.

I plan to do some testing over the next few days on the setup I’ll use later this month and I’ll get some practice shot videos recorded that will show what the video recoil looks like.
