Spotting Scopes - Angled vs. Straight Eye Piece

I prefer straight as well but they both have their benefits if you glass for extended periods of time through your spotter I would consider the angled due to neck fatigue

 Here are a couple guys using the straight Swaros and one using the angled Swaro, which one looks to be a pain in the neck?

 The other two are using EL 10x42's :chuckle:

I may opt to go with the angled as I can use it on the range as well when competition shooting. Thanks for all the input.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!
