think these will drive down the prices of old razor scopes?

as often as the power goes out in morenci you may want to hang onto it

I'm starting to get pretty pumped for archery javelina hunts

I've never looked through those but having a 15x with just a 50mm objective would make me shy away from them, i'll bet you lose light quickly. And 15x free handing is not very effective for me. But if the price is right I'm sure they have their place.

just called in today and Virginia Slim informed me. nothing is up on my portal yet.

30A October hunt for me, which was my 3rd choice. oh well I'm just happy to be going, love huntin new country.

july 14 8:17 a.m.

ketchup in glass bottles all the new "country" music jotos who wear skinny jeans and makeup and jewelry and sing $hitty lyrics about things they know nothing about

Would love to look through a set of those one day. Does each eyepiece focus individually?

friends don't let friends buy doublers lmao

when I was still in college all I had was a little Honda, I guarantee it's been off road more than most of the pretty boy lifted trucks you see on the highway. Now I have a f150 and I'm really glad I have the 4x4 especially in those sandy washes in the flat country and up high on the late hunts

People that don't put their shopping carts away in the store parking lot People that don't give you a courtesy wave when you let them over in traffic those are my big 2 and my wife gets a kick out of how much it irks me

But what if he sees our legs?... Elk don't know how many feet a horse has!

Fireman how do you like the binobib ?

Hey guys, I shot a bull a few weeks ago and want to get him euro mounted for the garage. Taxidermist in town says he'll do for $100. I can get the pot and burner I need for a total of 60 bucks. Is it worth it do just do it myself, or is it darn near impossible to get it cleaned up as good as a professional can do it? Just wanna hear your guys' opinions. thanks

Here is the before and after of my bull. It came out nice and white, even before I bleached it. I simmered for a couple hours in water and super washing soda, power washed, then simmered again in dawn and water. Then I brushed on some 40 wt peroxide gel and here it is. This guy has a horse head on him, his cranium absolutely dwarfs my Wyoming rag horn I killed a few years back. Thanks for all the tips.

Yote I went w/ 15s

I wimped out and went with a used set of Euro hd's. Saved me 900 bucks to put toward tripod/head, new boots, pack; and they are very good glass

Look on youtube at Steven Rinella's vegan vs meat eater. Basically a guy calls him out at his book signing, and steve knocks it out of the park. I always enjoy the way Steve speaks, and feel he says a lot of what I'm thinking, I'm just not smart enough to word it like he does. Basically what he says is to not hunt, is more unnatural than hunting. He backs it up with archaeological facts, etc. I like when he talks about how he, as a hunter, will know more about and appreciate deer more than a non hunter ever could. Check it out, it's only a few minutes.

I didn't even know they made a 12x42.

I come from up north and have hunted deer and elk my whole life, but this javelina stuff is brand new to me. I have a 28 general tag and have been out scouting some, and I glass a lot of deer but no pigs, even in thick prickly pear country away from roads. Do these critters like to frequent the slopes and sit in the sun in the morning, or do they generally prefer the flats? I'm just wondering where to focus my glassing efforts and if rougher country is better or not. Thanks guys

For what it's worth... Today a guy from work brought his 15x56 slc neu and i had my euro hd 15x56. we put them side by side on tripods. i went into this fully expecting to want an upgrade to swaro after comparing them. we looked for 30 minutes back and forth. into sun, shade, near, far. I thought the euro's were better but i didnt say anything to him. Finally, the guy who owns the swaros admitted that he thought the Euro's were sharper. I was actually really surprised the difference in clarity was that noticeable. I thought the edges were comparable. of course the swaro has a little wider FOV but it's not by much. I told him Swaro would probably beat Euro's in low light so he'd feel better, which may or may not be true. Anyway, this is starting to look like the best 1100 bucks i ever spent. As far as i'm concerned the only way to step up from here is the slc HD

Anybody had a chance to compare these much in the field? It's hard for me to tell when i'm looking outside at cabela's

same here. I'd upgrade 15's first. I'm usually hand holding my 10's to scan while I'm getting to a new glassing spot, so the dip in quality of your 10's isn't as apparent as when you put them on a tripod and sit for a while like you would with the 15's. if that makes sense

I want to take my 8 month old hiking with me out in the hills and have no idea whats best to pack her in. She doesn't ride well in my horn hunter pack. Anybody use those dorky looking kid packers? i dont care what it looks like just want it to work and be comfy. Thanks
