LOL, no patch needed. I don't keep hides. He was shedding his winter coat pretty good.
That scope is a Millet TSR 4-16 x 50. So far I have liked the scope alot. It's my first 30mm scope and it is big. Took a little to get used to carrying it around. The only complaint that I have about it is that the lighted retical went out. I don't use it anyway.
