hoghntr Report post Posted October 8, 2014 Well I was looking for a spotter for the range and checked costco and they have $100 off right now on this Alpen.. I did some research and found all positive reviews and even few awards one so for $322 tmd figured could not go wrong. so far just checked out on mtns around house but looks very sweet. Anybody else have 1 of these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Str8Shot Report post Posted October 8, 2014 The reviews look good... Not sure what you are looking for and the price but for the range have been using one of these for under 200 on amazon.... http://www.amazon.com/Bushnell-Trophy-Waterproof-Compact-Spotting/dp/B004I8U2GC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412804028&sr=8-1&keywords=bushnell+trophy+xlt+20-60x+65mm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonof12 Report post Posted October 15, 2014 You go to me...I just bought the Alpen 788 from Costco.com...couldn't resist the price. Excited to see how it works out on my 35B hunt next weekend. I figure with my Zen-Ray 10x43's and my brothers 15x56 Kaibabs this should round out our optics package just right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonof12 Report post Posted October 18, 2014 Got the spotter tonight - can't believe how good of glass this is for the Costco price. Thanks hoghntr for steering me that way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya im cool with it at range but I also have never used a spotter so it all feels foreign to me hopefully she works good in the sticks for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
