My elk hunting has been primarily archery in timber. This year my CO friend drew a 3rd rifle tag and I'm tagging along & need an optics sanity check. His tag doesn't have antler restrictions so we only need enough glass to find elk & tell bulls from cows. He will shoot the first bull he can.
I currently have Maven 10x42s on my chest that I use on a tripod. I went on a moose hunt in 2020 with this setup and felt a little outgunned in big country.

I currently have Maven 10x42s on my chest that I use on a tripod. I went on a moose hunt in 2020 with this setup and felt a little outgunned in big country.
Questions:
- In addition to my 10x42s for general scanning, would getting a pair of 12 or 15s be helpful in locating elk (thinking big country, and they might be bedded in some sparse timber)?
- Another buddy is tagging along who doesn't do much hunting. If he were to get one pair of binos for this style of hunting should he get 10s or 12s? He has a tripod.
