how do you keep your optics dry when its pouring

Rain X your lenses they won't fog and you can see good through

I let them get wet. Baggy full of napkins.

Op Drops Anti-Fog and the microfiber bag it comes in for cleaning the lenses. I would never use napkins on great glass unless I absolutely couldn't see and I had nothing else to use. I guess Vortex would replace scratched lenses, but I just don't.

If you have to use a napkin just dab the lense but never wipe it swirl in it...it's like sandpaper

Keep your binos inside your rain jacket & use leupold aluminum scope covers.....

For my scope I use a neoprene cover.  For the binos I have a FTF harness.  If its raining hard it goes under my rain jacket.

I use to put it under my jacket but constantly getting them out and getting wet from it then dealing with fogged lenses from your body heat...I'd rather just let them get wet

thats what I have always done, but I carry my gun with the eye piece up under my arm pit when it rains that hard.. and I hunker down under a dry tree a lot if it's raining, take a nap, read a book, eat, whatever, mostly take a nap though.

I had a hell of a time in the rain this morning with fogged optics.  I'd get them clear and 5 minutes later - can't see anything again.

Do not wipe ur glass with just any napkins unless its glass u don't care about much cuz u will see all the little micro scratches u made on those nice sunny days. One shouldn't be looking through their scope often anyway so use good scope covers and keep them closed as much as possible. If its very wet that that use binoculars with Euro glass but if u can't for that use 2, $100 pair of binoculars and swap them out every hour. Give them a thorough cleaning and drying and put them deep in your backpack then swap them out when the one you're using becomes too wet and foggy. I know it sounds weird and stupid but try it it works very well. Glassing clear-cuts is the most important thing when it comes to hunting in my opinion therefore devoting lots of time and energy at making it as proficient as possible is not a waste of time . Dry them off very well and put them in a ziplock bag with a few packets of that stuff that sucks the moisture out with cotton balls and a hand warmer. like I said before it sounds really weird but it works.
