Someday I'd like to try out one of those fancy Christmas wrap tubes.....
I used a bushnell elite for a while, sold it to a buddy for 200 bucks, they are ok and better than nothing. I got fed up when I couldn't judge a goat at 600 yards and when another guy could count points on a muley with his swaro binos on a tripod and I couldn't with my spotter. I got a swarovski stm 65 with a 20-60 eye piece, now I can see details with edges where before it was colours that faded together.

That says it all - when someone can see better through their binos than you can with your spotter..... well you know.

ive said this many times.. things you do not cheap out on are...boots...optics....tent....pack....
buy nice or buy twice....the items listed above are some of the very few things in this world that the higher the price the better the quality....
Swarovski spotters are tougher, Zeiss spotters have better glass, those are your 2 choices and yes ive abused them all...
Make sure you have enuff $$ let over to buy a good quality tripod, a $1000.00 spotting scope mounted on a $75.00 tripod is going to be a $75.00 spotting scope once the wind starts to blow .
"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero - 55 BC
