Jeremy F. –
Modern Hunting Optics is as good or better than [John’s] first effort [Optics for the Hunter]. New stuff in optics can get stale fast, and Modern Hunting Optics points out new technology and some of the stuff that was new 15 years ago but never caught on.
Bobby B. –
The 200-page softcover shows you how to tell just how good a particular optical instrument really is in chapters on testing binoculars, spotting scopes and rifle scopes. That’s handy if you want good optics and to save some money too.
Chris S. (verified owner) –
This is a well thought out presentation of modern optics for the hunter. After reading through, it has become a go-to reference for information on binoculars, rifle scopes, spotting scopes and range finders. While specific models and price points may change over time, considerations of utility and quality will not.
