[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 857181, member: 39764"] Bruce.... At 64 I still see pretty well thanks to Lasic surgery. That makes me have to wear readers when I read but thats pretty common in old farts (like me) anyway. My distance vision is excellent and no, low light isn't an issue with me. My hunting and range sessions are all in normal daylight. If it's an early hunt (like whitetails on my property), I already know their habits and where they will be so I don't need a spotter in that instance. I guess my prerequisites are as follows... Needs to be fairly light and compact but needs to accept a tripod or window mount Needs to be klutz proof and pretty durable. I prefer an armor coated optic 95% of the time I won't be over 300 yards in viewing distance an d 95% of the time it will be in controlled (range) conditions. I need enough resolution/clarity to view a 22 caliber impact at 100 yards on a target. My old Bushy handles all those things but at 30 years old, things are getting worn out. One adjustment for magnification on it, thats it. I like it simple. [/QUOTE]
