    Leupold vs vortex

    Sorry, I have never purchased a Vortex scope so I cannot comment on their quality. I do know that early in my hunting life I purchased two different brands of cheaper scopes. One (~1971 Weaver) fogged early on the first morning of my first deer season while I was trying to shoot my deer. Couldn't shoot because I couldn't see the deer. The next one (~1980 Redfield) had something come loose inside the turret and it caused a 9 inch low shot at the biggest deer I have ever seen in the Kaibab. These incidents caused me to buy my first Leupold. I have owned and shot about 10 different Leupolds since then with excellent results. In the late 80's, I fell on a rainy morning climbing a high ridgeline and put a huge dent in the primary end on a vari-x III (glass didn't break so I continued). In about 30 minutes I connected on a +300yd shot on a nice Coues deer. Leupold fixed it for less than $50 as it was my fault not theirs. I still own and shoot with that scope. Bottom line is: buy as much scope as you can afford. I would tell people to buy a slightly cheaper rifle over a cheaper scope. Your future hunts depend on good optics. A foggy or poor quality scope cannot make a shot even with a great rifle underneath it. There is NO substitute for great quality glass. Hope this helps.......
  17. Very nice buck. The wide ones always look great to me! Congratulations.
  18. Somewhere around 2003 or 2004, I marketed a very simple device that you could put in your pack (weighs almost nothing and came with a cosine chart ) and would give you a pretty good idea of the angle to the target. When the laser rangefinders came out with angle compensation, I pretty much stopped selling my device. I have given away a lot of these through Amanda and this website. I have a few more left if anyone is interested. I am not trying to sell them, just give them away. Send me a message if you are interested in getting one.
  19. Jimmy, Awesome buck. congratulations again. Hopefully, we will meet up again for a future hunt.

    Brian Terry's memorial

    Awesome memorial !! I know I shed a tear thinking of how this all went down. We can't thank our agents enough. Any day at work can turn into a deadly situation. Thanks to all who serve in the border patrol and armed forces abroad.

    Joeys first buck

    Joey, Again, congratulations on your first deer. Glad I was able to come down south and be there for the hunt. It was great to watch through the binos when you made the shot. Enjoy the memory as I do of my first deer hunt. Jim

    Vortex doubler???

    The doubler is meant to work on the 10X or 15X swaro's. Doubler works great and is easy to put on and take off. Just a few seconds. Just used it scouting last week. Good luck.

    Mule deer or Coues deer?

    Really Nice buck. The date on the photo says 2011. Hopefully not a year old.

    Vortex doubler???

    I have the swaro doubler. You unscrew the eyecup and screw on the doubler. This can be done on either side. This set-up works great on the 15x swaros for an easy 30x look at a deer without the added weight of the spotter.
