If you're in the market for some Swaro Optiks, check out the pre-father's day sale on EuroOptic. I scored on last years model, brand new EL's in 10x42 with Swarovision for $1799 out the door. Same price as the SLC HD's. Last I checked the sale is still going, maybe you can resist pulling the trigger, but I couldn't!
That's an awesome price Huntinguy!
I was going to start a thread here asking for moral support too, but I'll tag yours instead--slight second guessing myself hahaha. After years, and years, and years of wanting decent binos I finally pulled the trigger yesterday morning after staring at the checkout page for 20 minutes thinking "what are you doing spending two grand on binos you sicko?!?"
In my teens I had hand me down glass.
In my 20s I had whatever I could buy at sport stores.
In my 30s I had cabelas "they're just as good as the name brands".
Now in my 40s with just as many trips in my rear view as out the front windshield, I'm not compromising anymore. So last year while trying to stare into this dark canyon with the setting sun giving me a migraine I decided off-season would be the year.
I looked at all the big names over the last six months, hands on. Don't really know if they're so much better than other names.....but I can't wait to find out. Suppose to be here Tuesday according to UPS.
