Thread: Binos for bush stalking - do you need em? Why and how?

While binos are good for clarifying colour definition in dark bush, I've always found a quick gander through the scope will often be all that's needed.

I'm not super pro-binos. I don't carry them most of the time in the bush (it's very thick up here), but they have found me an animal or two in other places.
