What kind of binoculars do you carry?

I have 2 pairs of 10x42's, one is a set of Vortex Diamondbacks, the other is a set of Nikon Monarchs. I use them for deer hunting too. I use a pair on Bino-Straps that keep them snuggly on my chest and ready for quick viewing.
I'd love to find a pair of quality compact binos for turkey hunting, but everyone I've tried has sucked. Guess I need to look into the Zeiss or Leupold 10x25's.

10x42 Nikon monarchs, love them but do wish at times I had a bit bigger but fit in my coat pocket nicely when I wear the coat.

The market is flooded with 8x and 10x options with very little in the mid-power range. I just picked up a pair of these little Kowa 6.5x32 Wide Angles and have been very impressed. I normally carry a pair of Meopta 10x42s for deer and western big game, and the optical quality is on par with them, or dare I say may have a slight upper edge. Time will tell as I've only been using them the past week. They look like they're going to fill the niche for turkey and will likely get a lot of use this fall in the deer woods.

I have 2.

Bushnell 10x50- these are for glassing from the truck. They were on amazon for like $30-$40.

In field binos are Pursuit 8x42 that I bought at Cabela's for about $80.

I like my in field binos... seem to be fine quality. And didn't break the bank.

Vortex 10×25 monocular for hunting

I never carried optics in the past, but I ordered a Vortex Solo 10x25 monocular this morning to try out this season.
My need for optics is small, so if I am going to carry something it needs to be compact and lightweight.

Athlon Cronus 10x42... should have gotten the 8.5x42

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

Swarovski 8 x 30s work great

Same model I carry. 30 + years old and still fantastic Binos.
