    Therefore I have been looking into monocular options. Very good quality at half the cost. I am now considering high quality 3-6 or 8 *30 -36-40 . These seem to offer better light gathering, fov while not being too bulky or expensive as full binos.
    Any comments appreciated, thanks.

    I believe he means bush hunting, so a quick scan of an area before you move into it rather than an extended periods glassing
