Inhaltsangabe

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.

Thomas McIntyre is a contributing editor at Field & Stream, where he regularly tests new optics. He lives in Wyoming.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Good optics can make or break a hunt just as shooting skills and rifle selection can. And while most hunters often spend more money on optical equipment than they do rifles, they usually know little about "glass." Having a proper handle on hunting optics is essential for any hunter and having a good binocular and a riflescope vastly improve a hunter's focus and range. The Field & Stream Hunting Optics Handbook takes all of the guesswork out of choosing binoculars, riflescopes, and rangefinders by explaining what kind of performance to look for in optics and how to choose an optic that will fulfill specific hunting needs.After thousands of hours spent afield using many good (and some bad) optics, author Thomas McIntyre has gained an understanding of both the level of optical performance hunters require and a historical perspective on the development of the optical devices suited for hunting. He distills all that knowledge in this easy-to-follow handbook.
