[QUOTE="kenai_king19, post: 437270, member: 27838"] For counting tines this year, the deer would have been around 1300-1500 yards away and perfectly sky-lined, and I still couldn't count tines and legality. Way too fuzzy and the focus nob wasn't precise enough to get it clearer, and so on, the amount of light should have have been good, it was plenty of time after sunrise, so plenty of light, and wasn't cloudy either. I am definitely leaning towards the Golden Ring Leupolds because this one outfitter I went out with for a number of years all they used were Swaro binocs and golden ring Leupolds spotters. I was just too distracted by the elk to pay attention to the optics. :rolleyes: I had no idea about the porro prism and roof prism set-ups.I will definitely keep that in mind. Thanks for the info! I haven't really heard of Pentax for spotting scopes I have for photography. Time to use the good old internet to find out everything I can. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
