    bushnell 2.5x doubler

    I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with the bushnell doubler, or any binocular doubler for that matter? Its my understanding that using a doubler will decrease image quality but may be useful for those times I don't want to carry a spotting scope. Is there any reason a person...

    stalking techniques?

    I am curious what type of techniques people use for stalking. Obviously walking into the wind is the best advices, but that isn't always possible. I am a big fan of taking off my shoes and rolling up my pant legs walking with my toes pointed down as much as possible. I have stepped on my...

    hit what i consider a monster

    Here is a couple better pics. It looks like a different deer, but its the same. This just goes to show you how different they look when you're looking down on them as opposed to looking up at them. Different angles sure can make a deer look big/small (you should have seen what he looked like...

    hit what i consider a monster

    Here he is. I took the video camera footage of him and put it on the tv, then took a pic of the tv with my phone. The buck on the left is the one I hit, the one on the right was nice too, and there was one other buck in that group that was almost as big as the one on the left.

    Compact Binoculars question?

    I was considering buying a pair of 10x25mm binoculars and was curious if anyone out there carries these with them for any reason? I have a 80mm swarovski spotting scope and a 10+15x50mm leica duovid that I use when trophy hunting. My thought on owning a quality pair of compact binoculars is...

    They all got away...

    Here are a few more which the 4 largest did not survive. 3 of the pics are of the same 2 deer but a year apart. Funny how bucks tend to basically have their "friends" that they group up with year after year.

    They all got away...

    I just figured I had better start shooting the deer with something since buck fever usually gets the better of me while bow hunting so I decided to buy a decent camera.
