Binoculars Hunting

Choosing Hunting Binoculars

It's hard to track game if you can't see it. Therefore, one of the most important accessories for hunters is a good pair of binoculars.

While there are literally thousands of different models of binoculars on the market, not all are suitable for hunting. Most are not rugged enough for the woods, marsh or field. Many are not suitable for low-light conditions. Some are too powerful, and others not powerful enough.

Here are some factors you should consider when choosing hunting binoculars.

Binocular Construction:

Hunting is a rugged sport that puts demands on your equipment, including your binoculars.

Hunting binoculars should feature some sort of rubberized exterior armoring to protect them from being damaged if dropped or bumped against trees, brush, rocks and so on.

Because you'll likely be hunting in extreme weather conditions, you'll want a pair of binoculars that can withstand such conditions. They should be waterproof, and the lenses should be fog-proof. Another feature to consider are the lens caps. Binoculars with attached caps will protect the lenses, but not require you to fumble in your pockets looking for lens caps if it starts to rain or snow.

Roof prism binoculars are popular with hunters. Light enters the front (objective) lenses, and is then redirected through the roof prism to the rear (ocular) lenses. The roof prism design allows the binoculars to be more compact than binoculars that transmit the light directly from the objective lenses to the ocular lenses.

Binocular Lenses:

When it comes to lenses, bigger is indeed better. The larger the objective lens, the more light the lens transmits to your eyes. If you like to hunt at dawn or dusk, you'll want the largest objective lenses you can get. The objective lens size is the second number in the manufacturer's description of the binoculars. For example, 10x42 binoculars have 42 millimeter objective lenses. Objective lenses for hunting binoculars range from 40 millimeters to over 60 millimeters in diameter. Again, bigger is usually better.

When choosing hunting binoculars, look for phase corrected lenses. Phase correction is a coating on the lenses that increases the sharpness, contrast and color saturation. When you're trying to spot game that blends in with its surroundings, you need every edge you can get.

Another feature to look for in hunting binoculars is nitrogen-filled optics. The nitrogen inside the binoculars displaces oxygen, so that moisture cannot form inside the optics, fogging the interior lenses.

The rear (ocular) lenses are another thing to consider when choosing hunting binoculars. If you're like most people, your eyes aren't identical when it comes to focus. Therefore, you'll want to look for binoculars that allow each ocular lens to be adjustable for focus.

Consider, too, the amount of eye relief the binoculars feature. This is the distance from the lens to your eye at which you can still see the view. If you wear prescription glasses or sunglasses while hunting, you'll need some eye relief. Also, binoculars with good eye relief allow you to bring them up to your eyes quickly, without having to get your eyes perfectly aligned. 15 to 20 millimeters of eye relief is generally considered optimum.

Binocular Magnification:

The first number in the manufacturer's description of binoculars is the magnification. A pair of 8x42 binoculars magnifies the view by eight times.

For long-distance hunting, such as prairie dog hunting, a high magnification may be desirable. But for most types of wood/field/marsh hunting, too much magnification is undesirable. You'll be viewing too small a portion of the area you're scouting.

8x or 10x magnification is generally considered ideal for most hunting applications.

Many manufacturers offer zoom binoculars, which allow you to vary the magnification. In practice, though, zoom binoculars aren't always ideal for hunting. They tend to be more fragile and weigh more than fixed-magnification binoculars. Also, as mentioned previously, high magnifications restrict your view of an area.

The amount of area binoculars allow you to view is called the "field of view." The field of view (FOV) is referred to in degrees, or in feet at a specified distance. For example, 6 degrees of field of view is common. Expressed in feet, a pair of binoculars with 6 degrees field of view will allow you to see 314 feet of area at 1,000 yards.

Other things to consider when choosing hunting binoculars:

Weight is a consideration for any hunting equipment, including binoculars. 32 ounces may not sound like a lot of weight but, after a full day in the field, it will feel like it. Most binoculars made for hunting weigh around 20 ounces.

When selecting your binoculars, pay attention to the warranty the manufacturer offers. You're going to be exposing your binoculars to some pretty rough treatment, so you'll want the best warranty you can get. Many manufacturers offer warranties that last twenty years or more. Some even offer lifetime warrantees.

Properly cared for, a good pair of binoculars will serve you for decades. When you consider the cost of a single hunting trip, quality $300 to $500 binoculars are a great investment.

Advanced Nightvision Binoculars 3.5x40 $659.99 Yukon Advanced Optics? engineers kept versatility and comfort in mind when creating the Viking series of night vision binoculars. Each of the Viking series of night vision binoculars are similar yet different. The Viking RX 4x40 is the most powerful night vision binocular in the Viking series. It comes with removable, individual, collimated, doubler lenses, and can be transformed to a 2x24 unit by removing the 40mm lenses. The Viking makes use of a single built-in PULSE infrared illuminator for added image clarity in total darkness. The PULSE system utilizes quick infrared energy bursts that pierce the darkness further to increase distance, visibility and image quality. The PULSE IR System provides the highest level of infrared illumination without significant battery drainage. The same ?pulsing? frequency that is invisible to human eyes infiltrates longer distances due to the Infrared Illuminator?s quick energy bursts.

The Field & Stream Hunting Optics Handbook: An Expert's Guide to Riflescopes, Binoculars, Spotting Scopes, and Rangefinders $21.7 Hunters often spend more money on optical equipment than they do on rifles, and yet they usually know very little about "glass." Binoculars, rifle scopes and range finders cost a minimum of $1,000 each. That consumer wants to ensure he's spending money on the right products. This book informs the reader what kind of performance to look for in optics, depending on where they're going and what they're hunting. Good binoculars and scopes vastly improve a hunter's focus and range. Specific products are reviewed and presented here - with photos - in an easy-to-understand shoppers' guide that will vastly improve the hunting experience.

Advanced Nightvision Binoculars 2x24 $479.99 The Viking LT 2x24 night vision binocular has a magnification of 2x and an objective lens of 24mm. The unit?s eye relief of 12 mm allows for comfortable viewing while the 400 m range of detection makes this unit perfect for long distance viewing. The Viking LT 2x24 provides clear viewing in total darkness by utilizing a single built-in IR illuminator with a range of 150 m. Throw the ergonomically-designed, rubberized body around your neck for a long expedition; the lightweight (21 oz.), compact (6.9 x 4.8 x 2.8 in.) unit is surprisingly comfortable, making your viewing experience that much more enjoyable. Like all Viking models, the LT utilizes Yukon?s newly designed Eclipse lens cap system, which removes lens cap hassles, dual eye diopter adjustment with central focusing, and a wide field of view (30 degrees). All image intensifier tubes are extremely light sensitive and can be destroyed by bright lights; however the Viking LT 2x24 remedies this problem by including Yukon?s exclusive Eclipse lens cap system. These lens caps include a pinhole to protect the unit from bright light, but still allow the user the option of daytime use. Yukon?s exclusive Eclipse lens cap system not only protects the unit from bright light, it also saves users from many irritations. Everyone knows the hassles associated with binoculars? lens caps - they get lost or tangled, but without them the lenses become dusty or scratched up. The Eclipse lens cap system features flip-top lens covers that can be flipped up to fit against the binoculars? body and rotated to ensure that they are out of the viewing field. Also, the covers can be taken off all together. In addition to the Eclipse lens cap system, the water resistant Viking utilizes a soft, one-piece eyecup to prevent external light distortion and light leakage from the device, allowing the user to remain hidden in the night. The Viking makes use of a built-in PULSE infrared illuminator for added image clarity in total darkness. The PULSE system utilizes quick infrared energy bursts that pierce the darkness further to increase distance, visibility and image quality. The PULSE IR System provides the highest level of infrared illumination without significant battery drainage. The same ?pulsing? frequency that is invisible to human eyes infiltrates longer distances due to the Infrared Illuminator?s quick energy bursts.
