Summary

After spending thousands of dollars to purchase and test binoculars, a listener of the show joins us to share his findings. Our guest, Will, specifically set out to determine if he wanted a range-finding binocular, or if he would stick with separate rangefinders and binos. Once he settled on an all-in-one unit, he compared all of the best options on the market. What are the pros and cons of each model he tested, and which one did he end up keeping to hunt with this year? Tune in to find out...
