It’s true I had to go to Reeder‘s this year. The big 5O caught up with me! Just hoping I might get a few more minutes on these aging eyes when I’m sitting on those big fields.
ALL need a GREAT not cheap pair of Binoculars. Our deer time is 1 hr before sunrise to 1 hr after sunset. I currently use Meopta Meostar 12x50's. My favorite low light scope is the old Leupold var-x 3 with the heavy duplex. I NEVER scan with the rifle. In fact its never touched unless I want to shoot. I "hunt"with the binoculars(from high tower stands).
Many times I have found deer with my binoculars that I couldn't see with my naked eye. Once spotted. That old Leupold scoped .280 usually earned them a ride in the truck.
