Awesome, cheap, clear.
We'd all like a pair of $1200.00 binos for glassing that trophy elk, but lets face it...We all can't afford those, and some of us (namely me), have yet to glass a trophy. haha. But for a reliable, clear, well made set of binoculars Ive had great luck with the vortex diamondbacks. Ive had the old model in 10x42 and 8x42, and liked the new design enough to get the 10x42 in them and I gave the old pairs to my hunting buddies as gifts. They look better, fit my bino harness better, and feel more well made. And when you find them on sale, you can really get a good deal! Plus, if/when they get lost or stolen, you won't be out a grand.

Amazing 'Nocs!!!!
After having used budget priced binoculars for years and struggling to spot bucks (compared to my friends) I decided to step up and buy some higher end optics. After talking to many friends that hunt a lot and telling them I couldn't afford $1,000 for binoculars almost every one of them recommended Vortex. After reading reviews and comparing different brands in the store I bought a pair of 10x42 Diamondbacks. Thrilled with the quality, light gathering, crystal clear vision and price! What a difference over anything I've ever owned and at least equal to any much more expensive optics I've ever looked through. I don't think anyone can match the quality for under $250!

Can't beat these binoculars!
I bought these binoculars about 2 years ago now and I cannot say enough good things about them. I put my optics through quite a bit between turkey hunting, deer season, and shed hunting. They are constantly covered in mud, water, snow, used in sub zero temperatures, and have come through it all just as good as new. The glass is so clear and is comparible to much more expensive binoculars. They are also super light weight which I love. Plus you cannot beat the Vortex VIP warranty. I am definitely a vortex customer for life!
