Get some binos(12X minimum) a tripod and adapter and glass....that's all there is to it.

The binocs allow you to use both eyes (which is much less eyestrain than a scope) and the tripod keeps the view stable allowing you to spot small movements. Great for deer and elk.

If you want to "try the idea out " first. Doug used to have 12X Vortex Vultures for like $175 IIRC. A buddy got some and they were great value for the money. Very close to my Minox 15's

Find a cheap tripod and you're in businness.

You can always sell your car and upgrade to the Swaros with a Bogan tripod next year....
