I'm need a new pair of binos. I currently use a cheap ($20) pair of Tascos that will fit in the palm of your hand. Problem is they are so small and cheapthat I can't find the game when I look through them. I plan to hunt antelope next fall so I need a decent pair. Been looking at Nikon Extreme 7x35 that sell for about $130. They have porro prisims and seem to be okay for my application. I don't want to spend more then $175. My question is does anyone carry a pair of 7x35's around their neck when bow hunting? If you do are they in the way when you shoot? Does the weight of 2 pounds bother you? It seems like I already carry everything but the kitchen sink up the the tree with me now, so I'm concerned about size and weight. When I hunt with a gun I can use the scope so binos are not as important then.
