If you are a hunter you already know that there is no substitute for good optics. They can make for the most important part of your toolkit aside from your gun. That's because they can help you make a better hunter and can ensure that you ethically harvest an animal but most of all, let you enjoy the enhanced view of the world.
If you are just getting started with birding or hunting binoculars are probably the type of optics that would work best for you. And although binocular works great when animals are nearby, it can't get you close enough to the animal and show you the details you need to know. A spoting scope with its far greater magnification is definitely superior and makes for a better choice when lооking fоr mахіmum mаgnіfісаtіоn, better stability when wіldlіfе ѕроttіng frоm ехtrеmе dіѕtаnсеѕ and precise aim.

Having one is a great idea if you are spotting birds but prefer to view things through one eye. Also spotting scopes make for a good accompaniment when going hunting because they are very light (small ones can weight only a few hundred grams) and you can carry one with you with ease. Apart from that, you may find a spotting scope handy in many other situations like for viewing distant sports events, such as boat races, observing easily-spooked animals like deer, surveillance of property or just for casual astronomy.
When going out to buy one for yourself you can come across two basic design options, an angular eyepiece or a straight one. With an angled spotting scope you will be peering down the eyepiece while with a straight scope looking straight ahead. Both have advantages and disadvantages and it's up to you to decide what works best.
Also since it's very likely that you are going to use it in extreme weather conditions, means that another thing that you should consider is buying a waterproof spoting scope. Proper waterproofing will make sure that your tool is well protected from water and moisture. This also means that the inside of your scope will be protected from corrosion. Also being dustproof, and shock-resistant means that your scope will perform flawlessly under all weather conditions.
Finally, if you are wearing glasses while using the scope another feature to look for is long eye relief. This means that even when you position your eye further away from the eyepiece you can still see a clear image..
