Flatlander Report post Posted February 13, 2019 Alright guys it’s time to put the Vortex vs Swarovski 15’s vs Swarovski 12’s vs Zeiss vs Brand X debate to bed. I know many of us have Ham tags this weekend. I will be in 37b and I know several others will as well. Let’s get together and put our glass side by side for comparison. Let’s see if we can get 15 pair of 15’s all on one hillside. I can bring Swaro 15 HD’s and Docter Nobilems. I am thinking around 1:00 PM somewhere between Florence and the Tom Mix Memorial (Maybe the 96 hills?). Whose in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rossislider Report post Posted February 13, 2019 Dang, we are headed to Nashville for the NWTF convention and get back into Phoenix around noon on Saturday. I would really like to do this. Also have 37B HAM tags. Might try to get out Saturday later in the afternoon if we get home in good time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yotebuster Report post Posted February 13, 2019 This sounds cool. I’m in ND and it’s gonna be -15 this weekend but the cold makes for clear air so I’ll point mine south and see if I can see you guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted February 15, 2019 I'd love to see where leupold santiam 15s fall in line with those. Interested to see how this pans out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildwoody Report post Posted February 15, 2019 Glassing in the rain, that would be a great test. Can't wait to here the results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Jack Report post Posted February 17, 2019 I would like to hear other guys take on the 15slc hd vs 12EL. I’ve compared them a lot because I get 15x envy every now and then. To my eyes the ELs just have better detail and the extra power of the 15s isn’t as apparent because of this. Also the 12s do mid range glassing much better. Obviously the SLC are amazing glass, I just prefer the view of the ELs. For these reasons I’m holding onto my 12s but interested to hear others experiences Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildwoody Report post Posted February 17, 2019 Well what's the results.. A big pig? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted February 17, 2019 Walked 8 miles. Never took a shot. Only bino’s I got to compare were my SLC 15 hd’s and my kids 10x42 diamondbacks. Results are indeterminate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThomC Report post Posted February 17, 2019 You not supposed to walk while glassing. Any old cheap binos will work for that. 😊 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
