    A futile attempt to replace my 10x42 Engage.

    Well imagine my surprise when UPS showed up with a package that I had not ordered. Amazon actually found the Tracts and returned them to me. After all of the self-imposed chaos I didn't feel right returning them so I decided to keep them. After some use in the field I've found them to be quite...

    Tract is returning the Hawkes to me. So worst case I'll have an expensive pair of Hawkes.

    A futile attempt to replace my 10x42 Engage.

    A futile attempt to replace my 10x42 Engage.

    For the past couple of years I've been carrying around a pair of Bushnell Engage 10x42 and have been quite happy with them. These are the better of the 3 Engage and I think I paid under $300 for them on sale.They have been dropped and banged around numerous times. The hinge is loose and there...
