[QUOTE="mulie, post: 1892987, member: 19271"] I must agree with Plinker147 as I'm 60 now used 10X42 for most of my hunting years to date. However the wife heard me complaining about trying to judge a mule deer at 600yds. LOW AND BEHOLD we were out shopping she told me to pickup those bino's I'm always wishing for, bingo a pear of Swaro's 12X50's. Well last season again 400yds low morning light no problem the large 3x4 was easy to judge. There were other hunters on the same ridge-line. My decision was quick, one guy to the west of our position asked how did we judge the deer so fast as it had just stepped out with the Doe's leading. He was trying to decide, then bang, he stated he about jumped out of his skin. Again, if your long range judging that animal at 400 plus yards moving thru cedar trees. Granted your carrying them but with all the great bino harnesses today it did not seem to bother my neck or back. Yes the deer hit the ground on the first shot. [/QUOTE]
