[QUOTE="TexasSportsman, post: 2039356, member: 115081"] The other factor is your eyesight. I've worked in the retail firearms business and done a Iot of hunting. It's been my experience that most guys or nearly all of them just don't get their eye check once they reach 50 and older. It won't matter if you spend two or three grand on optics if you have poor eyesight you blowing your money. A man came into the store and wanted to buy a high end scope for his wife. She was diagnosed with a degenerative eye disease and lost 40% of her vision. She's in her 50s. I couldn't sell him an expensive scope in good faith because it wouldn't have helped her. I referred him to her eye doctor for recommendations. Her doctor couldn't because of the rate she was losing her vision. This is an extreme case but clarifies the point that as we get older and our vision begins slip. Get back to speed with and eye exam and corrective lenses then look for a really good pair of binoculars. [/QUOTE]
