Binos instead of Spotting scope

[Mish-pop]

I use my 15x16 binos and once bought a spotter but got rid of it quickly. Binos work way better. Sometimes I've gone lighter and just used my 10x binos on light tripod as where I was hunting I didn't need anymore range. Simply having 10s on tripod in some windy conditions made the difference. I don't hunt much steep terrain so if I spot something a mile or two off it's fairly easy to cut some distance to get a better look with binos

I use 12’s free hand and on a tripod, then go up to my 18’s on the pod. But currently thinking bout selling the 18 UHD’s to get a higher quality spotter.

I try and hunt as light as possible, so spotter only comes out for mule deer and truck glassing.
