How many of you guy's use them while hunting? I notice more and more people on TV dont use them. I just wonder if they dont because they arent paying for their scope????? I prefer my lenses to be clean and scratch free. So i do use them and they also help when storing the guns in the gun safe or cabinet.
When I store my rifles I use the scope covers that normally come with the scope, but when I hunt I leave them at home.

I use them, and try to get the see-thru kind if I can find them in the right size so that a snap shot is possible.
Of course, they usually get too cruddy to see through anyways. Which is exactly what would happen to my lense if they weren't on there.
The sponsors on the show probably don't want Butler Creek caps covering up their shiney new scope. Little of what we see on those shows is reality. I don't watch them much anymore except when I want my little girl exposed to hunting, there are very few not on game ranches/preserves anymore.
Every rifle, shotgun, and muzzleloader I own that has a scope gets Buttler Creek flip up scope covers. Maybe not the best or most expensive but they work for me. I flip them open when I get into my stand before day break.

+1 on the flip ups.
