If huntin' is a sport, then your lookin at an athlete- T-shirt
Gun bans have never accomplished anything, other than to create a safe working environment for criminals.
I have a Sightron, 8x42 S111, roof prism binocular. Well worth the $225 I paid for it.
I just snatched a Pentax 10x33 roof prism for half the price of Cabelas. While I prefer low power, large objective binos, I couldnt pass on the price.

If I remember them I also like to have my 12X42 Pentax along for the ride just in case I need to get (up close and personal)
Gun control is hitting what your aiming at.

Yea but they are fun too watch when none are close enough to shoot passed the time and ya see some neat stuff. also nothing wrong with scouting without walking all over the place.[;)][;)] Binnoculars dont leave scent and can see alooooong way.
Too funny... I 100% agree with Buckey....You need them to see where you may need to be.

I rarely use binnoculars when I go to Colorado either, I mainly use my scope then or tote a small spotting scope if I plan to sit a lot and glass all day.

The last buck I shot, was bedded down, 75 yards away, and I picked out his antler-no way I would have seen him if I didnt have glass. I shot him about 2 hours after seeing him. I just waited, sat motionless. If I didnt know he was there, I know I would have spooked him.

I hate to be in the woods without my binoculars and a watch.
