I find it hard to believe that I did this but it seems that I left my beloved Bushnell Elite 8x42's in Florida when we moved back north. Ok, I thought, I'll borrow my wife's Eagle Optics 8x42's, she rarely uses them and they are generally just around in the car generally for back-up. Got the Eagle Optics out and looked out of my window at my feeders. The Eagle Optics wouldn't focus closer than about 100m. so pretty useless to me. I assume that the bumping in the car has jarred something out of place. I solved the problem by ordering a pair of Nikon Monarch 5 8x42's. They arrived today and seem to be quite good. We'll share them for the summer then turn them over to my wife once we get to Florida and I recover my faithful old Elites. Such are the hazards of life when you get old and forgetful!:t:
