I didn't want to hijack the other gentleman's thread, so here are my questions.
Other than weight, do any of you guys see a reason not to go with the 85mm or even the big 95mm objective from the Swaro line? How do you guys feel aboue the Kowa 883?
I don't want to say money isn't an issue, because if I don't have to spend it, and can get the best quality glass at a lower price, then I may just do that.
What I want and need might be two totally seperate options. I would like to get the Swaro BTX 95. Do I need it is the question. Ultimately I want glass that I can use to decide whether or not hiking up after the sheep is worth it. I don't want to be second guessing myself and having to get too close to tell if it's worth the hike.
I've been reading as much as I can, but that doesn't compare to those who have used spotters a lot, and have owned certain models.
I've looked at the Vortex Razor, Kowa, and the Swaro's. At this point, the only difference I know is the price points and that not all glass is created equal.
Also, what tripods do you guys like for hunting and packing in?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
