Coues79 Report post Posted December 25, 2007 Leica or Swarovski, either way you're getting a superb pair of glasses. I personally have the 15 Swaros and love every crisp and clear edge to edge image I get. They are bad, bad, bad binos. Congratulations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted December 25, 2007 If my wife finds out what I spent I will get a large lump of coal upside the head!! they emailed me the offer and you had to log on through the email, unfortunately it had to be by dec 23rd I believe. Casey the leicas may have contributed to the killing of the buck, but there is an old saying that goes"even a blind pig can find a root now and then!!" ag Funny, they lead to several bucks, not just one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kcw Report post Posted December 25, 2007 Casey.....I have to agree with you the Liecas are the way to go. I had the swarovskis and they just did not work well for me, even though they are great glass, the liecas just work better for my eyes. Would not trade them for 10 pairs of swaros.

fatfootdoc Report post Posted January 8, 2008 oldtimer, Maybe it is time to replace the bifocals? I used my new swarovski on a buddies private land archery hunt in NM and holy friggin cow!! Those things are way beyond awesome!! I was able to judge deer much better and find them much easier!! It was like heaven!! I may never use my 10 x 42 els again, those 15's are light and easy to use! I see why Foundry Man treats his optics like a mistress now!! If I would have known the difference those puppies would make, I would have bought them years ago!!! Even if my wife finds out how much I spent , as long as she doesn't shove them up any orifice to far for me to get them out, it will be so worth it!!! Cant wait for hunting seasons!! I may hunt barbary sheep just for an excuse to use them!!! ag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThomC Report post Posted January 9, 2008 Is it not funny that you all "love the one you got?" Or "the more money you spend the better it is." Or "mine is better than yours." Or "your mother wears combat boots." Oops, you youngsters won't understand that one. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
