THE SHADE TREE PHILOSOPHY
Why We Call It Shade Tree USA.
In South Mississippi, when you want the unvarnished truth about a piece of equipment—whether it’s a tractor, a rifle, or a thermal optic—you don't go to a corporate boardroom. You lean against the tailgate under an old oak shade tree and talk to someone who actually uses it in the woods.
Mike Fortenberry started ShadeTreeUSA.com to bring that exact same neighborly honesty to high-performance thermal and night-vision hunting equipment. Investing in a thermal riflescope is a big decision. Mike makes sure you get the right sensor, the right magnification, and the right mount the first time.
Before & After-Sale Support
Need help zeroing your TU650 or setting up ballistic LRF profiles? Mike answers the phone.
Field-Tested for Hog Control
Every optic we carry is selected for rugged recoil rating, battery endurance, and humid night clarity.
BUILT FOR SERIOUS NIGHT HUNTERS
Traditional Tube Design. Space-Age Thermal Core.
Our flagship TU 3.0 Series mounts with standard 30mm rings just like your favorite daytime bolt-action or AR scope—giving you natural cheek weld and muscle memory in pitch black.
Dual-Spectrum & Gen 3.0 Sensors
Choose the TU650 M 3.0 for fused Thermal + Digital Night-Vision, or pure 640×512 thermal models that reveal hair-level detail on boars and coyotes through brush.
Integrated 1,200m Laser Rangefinder
Depth perception at night across a flat Mississippi pasture is tough. Our LRF models project instantaneous yardage right in your AMOLED display for confident shot placement.
All-Night Hot-Swap Battery Power
Dual battery system (internal + swappable external battery) keeps your scope running all night in the stand without losing zero or shutting down mid-hunt.
