OK,
First off it was my first hunting trip with my Uncle. Had never hunted the area and had an old pair of binoculars handed down probably from around WW2!
Needless to say had trouble seeing much and spent way to much time trying to focus! :banghead:
So, obviously its time for a new pair!
Looking for suggestion on size, power etc...
(Also should mention, Hunting is in Eastern Washington, Montana, and South Dakota, so generally wide open spaces in the hills. My western Washington hunting probably won't need glass as its up close and personal!)
1. Planing to get a roof prism pair.
2. Suspect I need something in the 10x42 or 10x50. Is it worth going higher (say 12-15x)?
3. Are adjustable power ones worth the extra cost?
Willing to spend money but also don't need to break the bank.
4. I know Bushnell has a rebate on at the moment. Are they any good?
Thanks for any insights, Suggestions that include your personal favorites are welcome!
