Hunters know the frustration of identifying a target in low-light conditions, where traditional optics often reduce a buck to a blurry silhouette. The groundbreaking Buk Ops Buknoculars is a game-changing tool that transforms how hunters maximize their time in the stand and the detail observed.

At the heart of Buknoculars is the revolutionary Primetime Color Vision technology, an industry-first innovation designed to enhance visibility during dawn and dusk. Unlike thermal imaging or infrared, this proprietary system brings clarity and vivid color to low-light conditions, allowing hunters to identify their target. I tried the Buknoculars at a trade show where a dark room set the stage to show the clarity and details of the optics. Nothing could be seen with the naked eye. However, the Buknoculars identified specific objects and showed them in true color.

Designed for versatility and performance, Buknoculars feature a manual focus lens for easy adjustments, a 1-5x zoom range for close and mid-range observation, and a large 2.95-inch HD viewfinder for a clear and immersive viewing experience. Hunters can also capture every moment with 4K high-resolution recording capabilities. Individuals with vision challenges will want to see how the optic works and provide information on a viewfinder.

Durability is important, and the optics include BukSkin, a premium neoprene protective cover in Veil Tac Black Camo that shields the optics from wear and tear. The unit requires four AA lithium batteries and an 8GB-32GB Micro SD card.

Priced at an MSRP of $499.99, the Buk Ops Buknoculars offer unique qualities, performance, and value, offering the newest tool to see, record and plan for any hunt. Visit Buk Ops' website at bukops.com.

Michigan Mayor Looks Down on Guns and Dogs

“If you’ve got a gun, you should be ashamed of yourself,” said Grand Rapids Mayor David LaGrand. NRA-ILA also noted that in his response to a police K-9 chasing down a suspect, LaGrand said: “It is time that we ask, ‘What are dogs good for?’ Like, if you need a dog to find someone in the woods, get a hound dog. If you need to chase somebody in a backyard, why couldn’t you do that with a drone? If my dog did what I saw in that video, I’d put my dog down.”

Coyote Tactics: Stay Flexible

The successful hunters I know do not get hung up on one tactic. They constantly float between strategies in an ever-changing hunting environment. Quite simply, they’re flexible. I take that improvising nature to heart even for coyotes, particularly when they shun my calls for whatever reason. When that occurs, I continue the hunt, but modify my strategy to fit the scenario.
