So after calling everyday since June 3rd, today I was finally able to place my order. This is how I rate their customer service: Bill Wagner - Director of Corporate Gift Cards - 1-417-873-5075 - This guy did an awesome job and fixed the problem in less than 10 minutes. He gets a 10/10...

Hello guys just wanted to let everyone know that there is a problem with Bass Pro gift cards being inactive when purchased from outside a Bass Pro Shop store. Got a couple gift cards for graduation and they are showing inactive even though they have receipts and the Bass Pro Shops system is...

Sounds like something is wrong. I have had a pair since around November and mine always range to 1200 on grass and 1300 on trees when unsupported with bright sun. If I range into the shadows of trees off a support I can normally get to a mile. After the sun goes down I can get past 2000 if there...

If this helps the Geovids read 25.61 and a Davis vantage pro 2 reads 29.75 (although I know that the davis is sometimes 0.10 too low) when right next to each other at the conditions today and 4100 ft elevation.

Of the optics I spent a lot of time comparing since I got them this is what I found (also posted some comparisons from before I bought mine earlier in this thread). I know side by side the image is a little brighter than a Leica ultravid 10x42 non-HD (with a couple scratches) and maybe the same...

I have owned a pair for a few weeks now. They have always been within an inch of shooter or exbal out to around 800 yards with my 30-06 185 gr Berger load. It just happened that profile "us 4" matched well and I have not tried the custom programing yet to see what even further distances read...

The Leica Geovid HD-B {{this is a new bino that has a similiar name to the old model}} "The newly developed ABC ballistic function (Advanced Ballistic Compensation) allows hunters to determine the point of aim much more easily and with greater precision than ever before. In fractions of a...

Based on what I have seen if the setting is on 1 moa clicks it will say 14 clicks (When I tried them out I left them on the 1 moa setting), but if you were to put it on 1/4 moa it would say 58 clicks (Based on what I have read in the instruction manual and online). So it would have to round to...

I have the same issue seeing the red reticles on rangefinders. My colorblindness is different than most red-green colorblindness according to the tests since sometimes I will see both numbers depending on the lighting. The worst one I have tried is the newer leupold. Cannot event see it at all...

Nice job! Hope you got it in one of my favorite areas. Getting tired of finding bear kills. Seems like about half the water holes have bear sign at them now. The G&F needs to increase their limit. If you cannot get out before that 1st Wednesday a lot of areas are closed for the year.

Good to hear you don't have any hazing. That just shows how much technology has improved. Too bad Leupold was crazy and d/c the mk4 binos. I thought that getting a pair with the TMR Reticle would be nice for target shooting or maybe even judging antler size. Maybe the mk4 spotting scope would be...

I have Leupold HD 10x42 Gold Rings and think they are some of the best binos that were made for the money but I know from experience that they haze up when the sun gets onto the lenses before a Leica or Swarovski bino. This problem can last for up to 30 min in the morning and evening when the...

The only 3 binos that I have looked through that would outdo the Leica Geovids you have would be the new Leica Geovid HD-B (unless somehow you found a pair in stock and then bought another rangefinder), the Leica Ultravid HD 10x50, or the Swarovski EL HD 10x50 WB. All 3 of these have excellent...

Tried out my turtleskin gaiters vs some cactus. They worked great! Just make sure to order huskey if you want them to fit over backpacking boots. TurtleSkin Snake gaiters vs Cactus - YouTube
