Default RE: What size binoculars are best for hunting?

I use 2 pair.

For still hunting and scouting....Simmons 10x25's. Very compact and lightweight.

For everything else....Bushnell Perma Focus 10x50's.

I once thought that a lower power was OK in Eastern deerwoods, but after a few elk trips in WA state, I got the 10/50's. Amazing how much clearer things look with a larger objective lense. And the larger bi-noc's aren't as shakey either.


And for BobCo19-65, binoculars used during archery season are even MORE important because you need to be able to see what's coming and from where, for the same reasons as during the firearms season, but without the luxery of a rifle scope.
