By the way...that is amazing. Similar to how these high end binos work... by the way...what Bino's are you using??

Not sure what he normally uses, but I sent him the ZR 10x42 for his field trial.  They work pretty damn well in my book!

I didn't read the whole post boneadict, but whats your opinion on that blactail looking 3pt?  Are you committed to using your bow the entire hunt?  Big boys will start showing themselves around the 10th - 12th!!

Zen-Ray Vista.  New site sponsor.  See the optics threads.  They seem to be very nice and great for the $$.  I used them for 2 weeks, then sent them on the Bone.  He got them before he left for the first day.

I love that idea of using your bow during the late rifle hunt.  I'm going to have to do that sometime too.  Bow hunting in the rut is soooo fun, especially when you get good weather that lets you sneak quietly.  Then if sh*t gets sideways you can pull out the hammer! When the fog is super thick the old scope isn't much good anyway so why not pull out the stick slinger?
