You can't leave them laying around.

I spent all day glassing with my new Swaro 15x56 HD's. LOVE THEM. It was raining and overcast and I was just absolutely amazed at how damn good they are. I've used Minox 15's, Zeiss Conquest 15's and Vortex Kaibabs and there is simply no comparison. They are that good. I was just smiling and giggling the whole time.

I can't wait to use them here in Nevada for mule deer in a few weeks and then coues deer down in AZ.

Here is a link to some comments on Cloudy Nights--scroll down to Eric Bakker's post mid-page:

"The new Swarovski SLC 56mm binoculars are the most enjoyable hand-holdable 56 mm binoculars currently in production because of their revolutionary ergonomics and balance".

Swaro 15 in use

They are real easy to get used to...

Why are you going to buy them and get some actual first hand experience?

Let's see. In the last eight years I killed fourteen legal bucks and does while hunting in Western Oregon. Many I found by glassing. Does that suffice?

No, not really. Unless you used Swaro 15's HD to find them with.

Didn't you shoot several of those deer in your yard?
