Welcome to the Hunts Back Country Podcast. This is episode number 471 and this is another

episode for the Experience Project in that gear category.

So once again for the Experience Project, we have three categories, the Gear, the Hunt, the hunt, and today we are looking at optics and specifically binoculars

for hunting.

This podcast conversation is a supplement to a video that we also released and you can find a link for that video in this podcast description.

But in today's podcast conversation, it is myself and Steve going deeper into some of the topics covered in the video as we talk about binoculars for backcountry hunting.

And do you need to spend a ton of money or can you get by with a budget by now?

And we also dive into many related topics such as field of view and why that's actually more important in many instances than

magnification. What is the right magnification for your needs? How to make sure that binos

or set up for you properly and ensure that you get the most out of your binoculars

and then also get into non-traditional binoculars such as range- binoculars with ballistics, image

stabilizing binoculars, the big magnification binoculars, and much more.

So there's a lot to take away in this one again. We have the video and some key recap points from this conversation at the link in the show description and as always if you have any questions or follow-ups for us you can contact us by email to

experience at exomontagear.com right now though. Let's dive right into this conversation. All right Steve, so today, talking optics, I guess maybe optics part one as we speak specifically about

binoculars and we'll get more into spotting scopes and tripods and everything else later.

Again, this conversation is more in-depth take at a video that will also be released where you went through a bunch of binocular options.

Just right off the bat before we dive into nitty gritty, I think it is, when I think of binoculars it's one of the gear items

many are some aren't that are

of varying importance, right?

So we've talked about with the experience project,

here's the gear that matters,

here's the gear that doesn't matter.
