Rippinlip Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Just give me some ideas for a set to put on my bino straps. I have had some big ones on there and the are not real good for what I need. Looking for a better field of view at closer ranges and lighter to leave on while I shoot my bow. I am looking mostly for bow hunting and in real thick brush, maybe max of 100-150 yards, I will keep the big boys in the backpack or in the truck.

DonBo Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I have a pair of 10x25 Nikon that I use for hunting the woods. I love 'em! Right about $100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deitz Dittrich Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I got a set of 10X auto focus ones... THink bushnell makes em... smallish, but not too small. And love the auto focus feature, cant figure out how it works, but it does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I bought a pair of this years Bushnell Legends. For the money, I believe they're the best you can buy. I did a ton of research on binocs in the $250 to $400 price range and I'm super happy with this purchase. Tons of people were happy with last years model and this years model has better glass and a nicer eye relief system. I highly recommend them.

harvey lee Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I purchased a set of 10x42 Zhumell glasses a year or so ago. Smeller set and will fit into a little bit bigger coat pocket or a harness. I have been overjoyed with these glasses an would without a doubt buy them again. Lifetime warranty also. If my memory serves me well, I believe I paid $275.00 for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntnfish Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Harvey, are the Zhumell's that you have the 10x42 Signature Waterproof binoc's? I found some online but want to make sure they are as good as the reviews I've seen. The main thing I am wondering about is how they do in low light. Thanks.

camdu7 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 8 power work better IMHO for most whitetail hunting in MN. Easier to hold steady and wider field of view. I have a pair of Nikon Monarch 8x42 set up with bino buddies and love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcsprtsmn Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I second the Bushnell Legends. For $250-$300 range.I do recommend the 8x32. They are comfortable, light/small, with BAK 4 prisms and have an exit pupil of 4 (about the max light gathering humans can notice). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Quast Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I bought a pair of Cabelas last year for Colorado out of the bargain cave They listed for 330.00 and I paid 170.00 for them Of course I didnt get a warranty with them , but not really worried about it either though. Great pair of Bino's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
