Upgrade current setup or get a spotter?

Thanks. I'm actually looking at that compact 11-33x50 Razor. Do you think you would prefer the spotter without eye glasses? Or would you still go with the 15x?

There's just something about looking thru with stereo vision that I like better. I dunno... I think maybe it's because your brain is geared towards it already or something.

In some places I'll only bring binos and no tripod because it's thick and there's no point to having the tripod in that area. But those places are more of an ambush hunt. Where I just lay in waiting for them to pass by.
