[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 325156, member: 3373"] My experience when buying any glass is to make sure you take them outside and maybe at lowlight to look through them. If you want to see how they work at 800 yds, it will help to look at something at 800 yds. You most likely won't be looking at a deer outside the store but you can compare clarity by looking at branches, etc. at long range to see how each set of glass works at a longer range. I'm assuming you know how to set a pair of binoculars for your eyesight. My advice is to try them to help make your decision. You don't have to buy the most expensive pair, but a pretty good general rule is that you will get what you pay for. You don't need to spend $2000, but you won't get anything satisfactory for $100 either. Kind of set a limit of what you want to spend and only try those types. Have looked through high end binoculars and there is definitely a difference in my experience. I'm not much of a true trophy hunter. My judgement is not usually based on what I think an animal will score. It's more of a "Holy shit" judgement. If I see a buck that meets that criteria I'm done scoring. [/QUOTE]
