Reading the Vortex fury manual it says it's not for angles greater that 15 degrees at 800 yards or 15 - 30 degrees out to 400 yrds. I have not see other (mid - high end) Bino / Range manufacturers mention a limitation on the angle it can be used. Majority of my mountain shots are greater that...
As a New
Thanks, I'm looking forward to watching the progress. As a newbie to high-elevation back country hunting I'm looking for all ways to make sure I'm mentally and physically prepared.
Are there folks using Mtn Tough in N. Houston (The Woodlands / Conroe)? Looking for workout routine and seems to make sense if there's someone pushing you harder. I haven't signed up for Mtn so correct me if I'm wrong, maybe the program has Virtual partners that work just as good. Thoughts?

I'm looking at my 1st Mnt Goat hunt next year in BC and wondering about physicality of the hunt. At 56 and living in Houston area (@ sea-level) I'm in good shape with plenty of experience day-pack hunting elk, Ibex, bear, deer, etc. in the mountains of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. I realize...
