lookin to glass at long long range

what if you could get to klnow the game pattersn of big deer from the confines of your front porch. but this area is 10 miles from your house.

ill exsplain more. unit 45 (bennet mtn) the mtn is steep and rugged. the face you can see from my place in in the sun most all day from sun up to sun down. im thinking deer like this side of the mtn.

the mtn in hole is steep and rugged. rock ledges steep steep faces. pine trees, creeks cayons, flat grassy ridge tops, pretty much mule deer country in nutshell. all this visible from my place.

im curious if 500 bucks would get me some kinda spotting scope or possibly telescope capable of veiwing well at 10 miles. good enough that i can sit and watch game for hour at time, get to know there schedule. basicaly learn theyre way of life without leaving the house.

deer from here are known from all over. ive always heard unit 45 in idagi produced some of the biggest muleys around, buit had never seen anything worth talking about. this year is difrent. i got glimpse of 5 or so bucks taken off the mtn. these arent your average 20" plus muley.

aanyways is something like this possible with an investment in 500 dollar range or possibly less. i figure in year of glassing id save that in much in fuel tugging the horses up there every day after work.

tell me im crazy and ill agree

Evan
