hey guys Scott Reekers here with
to talk about some of the great new
products from Vortex and how you can use
them in high country just like what's
behind me to help you reach out and find game.
The Viper HD 10 by 42 now the first
thing you're gonna notice I'm a pretty
big guy and these sit in my hands just
perfect you've got this great rubber
molding where your thumbs fit
comfortably then you notice the eye
relief comes out very efficiently and
it's perfect for raising up to your eyes
and you can see that these are these
fits very well in the cups of my eyes
they're perfect for a situation where
you're wanting to get that first look in
the country and find that first look at
that animal you use your spotting scope
to pick apart an animal and we'll get to
the spotting scope next now the next
piece that people would probably ask me
is how about the glass what is their
quality level like Vortex and these
Vipers make a quality piece of glass
that I would be confident using in the
high country
all over some of my favorite glassing
spots very similar to like to this you
can see that I've got country where
there's lots of cuts lots of little
areas where you want to be picking apart
you're looking for for the grey ghost
I'm looking for a high country mule deer
this year and these would be binoculars
that would be great in this situation
the next piece that I want to talk about
is their weight these are light weight
binoculars that you're not going to feel
like they are pulling you down on your
neck some binoculars have a lot of
weight and a lot of beef to them these
are the tough binoculars that aren't
going to weigh you down so for the ounce
counter or the guy who wants to pair
these with the bigger at 85 objective
spotting scopes these are a great
partner to work with those find the
animal with these work in conjunction
with your spotting scope I like a
spotting scope that can reach out and
touch something and so looking here you
can see I've got the Vortex Viper HD and
the first thing I'm going to point out
is
Vortex is very conscious of those of us
like myself who are really hard on gear
so they send you the first thing you
notice is this neoprene case and it came
straight out of the package with this on
when I pulled it out and you can see the
eyepiece here you got the heavy-duty
rubber
you've also got your focus large easy to
adjust ring very easy to get a grip on
very easy to get a grip on with gloves
as well I'm the kind of hunter who is
constantly wearing gloves even in late
August right now we're we're doing some
scouting right before we head into our
season and it's cold up here when you're
touching the spotting scope when you're
touching your binoculars all the time
your hands are cold
you're going to wear gloves even
sometimes just liner gloves to protect
your hands a little bit
this rubber very easy to get into focus
you can also see that Vortex is
conscious of those situations where
you've got the sun directly beside you
and you need that sun shade that's going
to allow you to still keep that mule
deer in focus that you've been
watching for months this allows you to
keep track of him allows you to pattern
him to reach out and touch him and stay
there that stops that edge-to-edge glare
you're looking at the 85 millimeter
objective so you can really reach out
and gather some light and from
edge-to-edge quality that's very
important especially on a high country
hunt like this you can see we're
fighting with some rain right now on
this particular scouting trip we've got
some sleet light conditions like this
being able to reach out and grab that
light pull it in take that sunshade back
and be able to keep your scope protected
with the neoprene case but get that
edge-to-edge clarity because of this
large objective is important vortex has
thought of that looking at it's zoom
you're going to be able to zoom in with
all that heavy light coming in even late
into the evening you're going to be able
to see what you're wanting to see this
particular model we can go out to 60 times
Vortex has built a reputation with tough
products but if you're one of those
crazy people who manages to break things
not a problem
Vortex takes care of their customers
with this Viper HD if there were ever a
problem you'd be able to take care of
that
with Vortex no questions asked for more
