Default RE: Binos question.....

I'm thinking about some Nikon Monarchs 10x32, or Leupold equivalents, when I get the money.
Don't waste your money.........the objectives are just too small to transmit enough light. ESPECIALLY in a 10X32. You won't see CRAP in low light, trust me.

The perfect whitetail binos IMO are a full sized roof prism pair, with 42-43mm objectives in an 8X.
If you get a good pair with phase corrected prisms and good fully coated optics they will allow you to see things in low light that you would NO PRAYER of seeing with the naked eye and with a nice wide field of view.

If you're going with Monarchs don't waste your money on small objectives.......get the 42's and put em on a harness.
