Question out of ignorance, not being argumentative.......How many bowhunters out there actually use and benefit from a big, heavy 8x40/10x42 rf bino of any maker? Seems like the 8x monocular in the various RF's would do the job for 99% of the bow hunters out there.
For spot and stalk bowhunting, a full size bino with decent magnification is certainly appreciated. Also, the low light performance is superior to the tiny monoculars.

When hunting whitetails from tree stands, my Zeiss PRF is great, and it's all I'll ever take. But hunting mulies or elk via spot and stalk, it's a PITA to have that and a pair of binos both dangling from my neck. The PRF isn't exactly a pocket RF. But since I also shoot LR, I'm stuck with needing a bigger RF.
