I just got a pair of new Swaro HD 15s for an every other year hunt out west. Hard to justify my need for them over Cabela Euros or Zeiss but it was a 60th birthday gift from wife and children. I compared all 3 and Vortex in a store and you can tell the difference but probably not miss any game difference. I also got a Slik tripod and Outdoorsman mount because hand holding them is not going to do me any good over 10 powers. I'm starting to get the hang of glassing out west but was not crazy about 1 eye thru a spotter so made the switch for this years Elk hunt.
