Looking for some help with a selection for a spotting scope and tripod. Would like to make this a one time purchase for a years to come. as far as my budget goes I would be willing to be in the neighborhood of $1500 + cost of a tripod. Here is what I envision the type of hunting; mule deer/elk hunts in high country/spike camps and plenty of road glassing. I see myself using this a lot around the Midwest for whitetail hunting where I live so again it would be used in the truck a lot. Love to here your thoughts and what experiences you have with ones you have used. Would not be opposed to buying a used one if you have one for sale. Thanks a bunch.
