What spotting glass and big glass are you using?

Mr. Takman,
I have used Docter's optics 15 X 60's and smaller one 's of 10 x 40's. However, I've moved up with Swarovski optic's, it costed me 1 whole month of 120 hours of overtime to get them....LOL. I need every edge I can get when I hunt our Coues Whitetail deer in AZ. I've swear by Leupold Spotting Scopes 12x40x60's Gold Rings for judging our Small Coues Whitetail Deer.. As for this year I drew ZERO permits, but Bow season starts this Friday 24th and may the arrows fly....
Respectfully El Sancho

El Sancho, Thanks for the response. I thought I would get a few more responses on this. Maybe I need to move this to the optics forum.

For a spotter, I am using a Swarovski STS 20-60X65mm spotting scope.
The biggest binocular I use is my Swaro. EL 10X42s.

I've used B&L Elite spotting scope, 10-20 Leup. Compact, a set of Weaver, and Bushnell Spacemaster Big Eyes Daryll Cassell put together for me. But i just couldn't take it anymore and just purchased these, which oughtta help some if i don't have to haul them very far-- http://www.kowascope.com/frontend/proddetail.asp?pn=BL8J1&co=10000325

sscoyote, How much do they cost? Now that's big glass. Obviously, you are real pleased with them.
