I have done that, as much as I can (trying friend's expensive optics in the field to compare, and agree doing this in the store is almost useless). It hasn't changed my mind, yet... You mentioned a lot of good sales features, and I have observed those same minor differences. I just don't get how...
If your eyes can't tell the difference between color shades (like grass yellow and elk yellow), then how do your binos help that? Won't your eyes still have the same issue, even through the optics? If mid-grade glass changes the colors such that they appear even closer to each other then I guess...
I know this topic has been discussed many times, but I'm still not convinced.
I have tested many different grades of optics (binoculars, spotting scopes, rifle scopes, rangefinders, etc.). I honestly don't see a big difference between most of them. I fully admit that a $3000 piece of glass is...
Bushnell 6-18x50mm model# 71-6185. Excellent cosmetic and working condition. No dents or dings. One very tiny minor scratch on tube from rear mounting ring. Nice clear lenses and reticle. Ajustable objective for fine tuning focus and parallax from 10 yards to infinity. Focusable eyepiece for...
Very lightly used 2017 Prime Centergy Hybrid, RH, 55-65# limbs. All black. Recently installed new string/cable set (red/white firewire). Limbs have matching red Bowjax limb dampeners. Slightly used spare string/cable set (green/orange) also included. Cams are TRK #3 which state a 29" draw...
Very good condition and works perfectly. I have loved using it. Only reason I'm selling is I moved up to a Perfex heavy metal.
I lost the original trainer lock pin, but made my own replacement and it is included.

I don't think his website is set up to ship to USA. But if you email Dan at [email protected] then he will send you a PayPal invoice for the total amount.
Gold Tip Hunter (9.3 gpi) and Bloodsport Hunter (9.1 gpi) shafts don't cost much, and I've found them easy to build out, durable, and accurate enough. Trim to size by cutting off both ends of shaft and they will be much straighter than the specs, and shoot great. ID is .244" - .246" which is...
Give these Australian single bevel Vandieman's a look (here). I've heard lots of good things, and I just ordered a 3-pack for $39 total (including shipping from down under). I'm not affiliated in any way...
Every bare shaft I shoot out of my bow (Hoyt Carbon Spyder Turbo, 60/70 set at 65, 30") seems to want to rotate left. I don't know if it's my string twist or serving direction that determines this. But shaft brand, model, spine, or length doesn't seem to make any difference. All my fletchings...
I like Gold Tip Hunter and Bloodsport Hunter shafts, 300 spine, 9.3 and 9.1 GPI respectively. These are some of the most inexpensive hunting shafts available. But if you build your own arrows and cut to size by trimming off both ends, they come out much straighter than the specs, and they shoot...
Will sharpen just about anything else too... It's more than your $50 budget, but only a little if you watch ebay for a slightly used or open box new unit.
Just ordered some 150's to try out. These look great, and I've heard nothing but good about them. Shipping from Australia to USA isn't too bad either. Total for 3-pack plus shipping was $39 USD.
