I have had to use my wife's 8x30 Swaros on a couple of hunts, and I missed my 10x42s--especially as the sun went behind the mountains. But then, as a working biologist/ranch manager, I carried the 10x42s every day and used them constantly--in the pickup, on horseback or afoot. Still do even though I am pretty much retired.

Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...
