Picking the right set of lenses is one of the most important decisions a clay shooter makes. The 3RX shooting glasses kits have been designed to give you a balanced starting point – a curated mix of colours and light transmission values (LTVs) that cover the core conditions you’ll face. None of them are a wrong choice; each kit provides a foundation you can build on as you learn which tints suit your eyes, your grounds, and your shooting style.
The Science of Light and Contrast
At its core, shooting eyewear is about controlling how light reaches your eyes. Every lens has a Light Transmission Value (LTV) – the percentage of visible light that passes through the material. This is determined by the density of pigment in the lens combined with any surface coatings, such as Diamond RVO, which can further reduce transmission by reflecting or absorbing specific wavelengths. LTV is measured using a spectrophotometer across the 380–780nm spectrum, giving an exact figure for how much light reaches your eye.
- Light Management:
Too much light overwhelms the eye, too little and the target disappears into shadow. That’s why LTV is the first consideration. Our HD Brown lens transmits just 6% of available light, making it a Category 4 lens designed for extreme glare and high-sun targets. At the other end of the scale, XTRM Yellow at 75% transmission maximises available light, brightening dark scenes and making targets visible even in heavy overcast or woodland cover. - Contrast Enhancement:
Once brightness is balanced, contrast becomes the key to picking up targets quickly. Lenses achieve this by filtering selected wavelengths of the visible spectrum – blocking those that dominate the background while allowing the target’s colour to remain vivid. Purple lenses, for example, suppress green and blue so orange targets stand out against trees or cloudy skies. Yellow tones amplify brightness while enhancing both orange and black targets in dim conditions. This selective filtration improves visual acuity, allowing the shooter to detect the target faster, with greater consistency and confidence.
TR1 • 2 Lens Kit
The TR1 kit is designed to give you confidence from first light through to bright, changeable conditions. It pairs two of our most advanced Diamond AR coated lenses, covering both low light and mixed-background situations.
Lens colour purposes and benefits
- Yellow Diamond (63% LTV)
Brightens dark, overcast, or indoor ranges. Enhances contrast on both black and orange clays when light is low. - Purple Diamond (20% LTV)
Reduces green and blue wavelengths so orange targets burst into view against trees, cloudy skies, or shaded layouts.
Why choose the TR1 kit?
Purple and yellow have consistently been the two most popular colour choices in clay shooting. Together they give you balanced coverage across the most common conditions: yellow to brighten overcast mornings or shaded layouts, and purple to add definition when targets cross trees or cloudy skies. With one lens to lift the light and one to control it, this combination makes adapting on the day simple and reliable.
TR2 • 2 Lens Kit
The TR2 kit is tuned for Sporting and Trap shooters who spend more time in brighter, open environments. It pairs two Diamond RVO coated lenses designed to manage glare, refine contrast, and keep targets visible in clear skies and open ground.
Lens colour purposes and benefits
- Rose Diamond (19% LTV)
Enhances orange targets while softening harsh green and blue tones — perfect for open terrain or when glare starts to fatigue the eyes. As one of our Spectra lenses, Rose Diamond amplifies colour response for a more vivid, high-contrast sight picture. - Blue Blaze (17% LTV)
A warm brown base with Blue RVO coating that filters blue-green light, boosting orange contrast and improving depth perception in bright, open conditions. Also part of our Spectra lens family, it fine-tunes the visual spectrum so colours appear more saturated and targets stand out faster.
Why Choose the SP-2 Kit?
Rose and brown-based lenses are proven choices for open fields, treelines, and bright-sky targets. Together, they cut glare, reduce the wash-out effect of excess light, and give clays greater definition against lighter backgrounds. This pairing is ideal for shooters who regularly face bright, open layouts and want lenses that keep the sight picture vivid and consistent without being overly dark.
TR3 • 4 Lens Kit
The TR3 kit is built for shooters who want full-spectrum coverage across the most common clay target conditions. With four premium lenses — including two from our Spectra family — it balances light management and contrast enhancement from overcast woodland layouts to bright, open fields.
Lens colour purposes and benefits
- Purple Diamond (20% LTV)
Blocks excess green and blue so orange targets explode into view against trees or cloudy skies. - Rose Diamond (19% LTV)
A Spectra lens that enhances orange while softening glare from green and blue backgrounds, keeping targets sharp in open terrain. - Terra RVO (16% LTV)
Another Spectra lens, Terra RVO gives a warm, balanced tone that maintains target visibility without heavy colour distortion, whilst amplifying the whole colour spectrum – ideal for long sessions or shifting light. - Yellow Diamond (63% LTV)
Brightens low-light conditions, boosting contrast on dark or black clays when the light is fading or stands are under cover.
Why choose the TR3 Kit?
This kit offers the widest flexibility for clay shooters who want to be prepared for everything. The purple and yellow give you the classic high/low pairing trusted by top shooters, while Rose Diamond and Terra RVO add the extra performance of Spectra technology – amplifying colours and providing a more vivid, consistent sight picture in medium to bright conditions. If you want a balanced mix that covers early mornings, cloudy woodland stands, and bright open grounds, the TR3 delivers it all in one box.
