    These yokes any good? Will they satisfy my inner ninja?

    Was reading a post on a english site a while back, I think they may be made from the same company as Yukon. If so they should be good quality for the price..

    I had a dadel gen 2+ scope afew years ago. Not great. No depth perseption so hard to judge range, unless you know the area well. Best bet is to get gen 1 NV and lots of infra red light.

    In reply to Fish Slapped, I have a gen 1 Yukon for a number of years now and it is very similar to the Lidl one. I have an infra red filter on my clulite lamp and you will only make out the eyes at 100m, but what I have done, using a wavin coupler, is to attach a 4 x 30 Hawke scope which gives me better clarity at range and also a reticle. I have had a vixen and 4 cubs walk right past me on a farm using this, only the last little bugger caught a whiff of me and bolted.
