Swarovski vs Kowa warranty comparison
I need something bigger than that as most of the hunting I do is for moose, caribou and bear. I only hunt sheep every couple of years and even then weight is not an issue. I have no problem packing a scope the size of the 884, I packed a Nightforce TS80 on my last sheep hunt if that tells you... -

No, not me, it's either full curl or larger or broomed. -

Swarovski vs Kowa warranty comparison
Don't need the modularity, I looked at the 774 but it lacks the flourite lens, is the flourite that much of a game changer between the 774 and 884? -
Swarovski vs Kowa warranty comparison
Ok, getting closer to making a decision, if you had the choice between the Kowa 884 with the TE-11WZ II eyepiece and the Swarovski STS80 HD 20-60 eyepiece, which would you get? I'm not concerned with the dimensions of either scope, I've used a buddies Swarovski spotter and know how the focus... -
Swaro ATX vs ATS worth the extra cost?
Since we're discussing the ATS/STS scopes, it is worth the extra $600-$700 to get the STS80 over the STS65? That's a lot of extra boot for what appears to be a minimal gain. -
Swarovski vs Kowa warranty comparison
Nice! Looks like I might be looking a little harder into their optics. Thanks for the feedback. -
Swarovski vs Kowa warranty comparison
This is exactly what I was looking for, when you send your optics in for cleaning/repair do they charge you for it or is it free other than shipping? Just trying to get a feel for how they compare to Swarovski. Swarovski doesn't charge anything for their cleaning service and if it needs repair... -
Swarovski vs Kowa warranty comparison
I'm getting ready to throw down on a new spotter, leaning heavily towards the Swarovski STS model but haven't decided if I want the 65 or 80 version. Also looking at some of the Kowa's as I've been hearing a lot of good things about them but have no experience with any of their optics. I have a... -
Swarovski Customer Service
Question for you, can you send them in to CS and have them cleaned? I'm looking at purchasing another spotter (leaning heavily towards Swarovski) and am trying to get as much info as I can on their spotters. -
Swarovski Customer Service
My experiences with Swarovski have been nothing but stellar. I send my binoculars (10x42 Habichts) in every 3-4 years for a thorough cleaning and check up and twice they have been sent to Austria for repair. The first time it didn't cost me anything but the original shipping cost to send them to... -

AK Sheep, Population Observations
I was able to hunt sheep in the same area I hunt moose for the 3rd time in 12 years and this year was the first time I didn't see any rams at all. I usually always see them while traveling to different drainages to hunt but even the ewes and lambs were scarce this year. I did not see anyone come... -

Not to get this thread sidetracked but how did your bow hunt go KD, I've been waiting to read your story. -
14-days of remote solitude moose hunting in Alaska
I also experienced for the first time a mature bull moose creating a rut pit and filling it with his urine, watching his cows lay in it to get that wonderful moose perfume smell on them. I enjoyed your story Doc and congrats to the both of you on your successful hunt! Alaska, there is truly no... -

Well, I booked it. Alaska 2021
We spotted the bull my buddy took the day before he shot it, it was up in the timber with some cows but you could see his antlers 5 miles away which is how I spotted him. He gave us the slip so we went back to camp and had lunch. Buddy went back out with another friend of mine and they got into... -
Well, I booked it. Alaska 2021
Vern, we were seeing lots of rut activity starting around the 11th and when my buddy shot his bull he had 5 cows with him and was heavy in the rut, creating rut pits and urinating all over everything. I don't ever remember seeing that kind of behavior that early in the season, especially where...
