    Binoculars are top priority for me , they don’t have to be the best of the best , but clarity and low light performance are a must .
    If you cant find an animal ( it amazes me how many animals people walk past without seeing) then your flash scope will only ever be used on paper targets . To be a successful hunter you first have to find the animals, your binoculars are ten times more useful in this task than your scope .

    Both statements made for open scrub/tops hunting. Binos are next to useless in thick bush.
