REVIEW: DIAMONDBACK BINOCULARS 10x42

diamondback bincoulars

The Vortex Diamondback 10x42 binoculars is a great piece of glass for an excellent price point.  We have all been in that situation where we needed that extra boost to identify game in thick brush or at longer distances. No one wants to shoot their buddy or another hunter thinking that it was the monster buck they saw earlier in the season in the same area. Here at Team Whiskey, we have a motto to hunt by. When you see a deer in the thick brush, you need to identify a body part of the animal. Whether it’s the lips, ears, or rack, you need to identify a body part before squeezing the trigger. 

To prevent any Dick Cheney accidents from happening, the Vortex Diamondback 10x42mm Binoculars are a great quality high-performance hunting optic at an affordable price. The image these products are so clear that you will be able to spot the flickering of a mule deer's ear bedded down in the thickest willow patch, even in low light. These binoculars are on par with binoculars hundreds of dollars more.  

 Team whiskey hunts hard, and we are very hard on our gear, these optics have held up wonderfully. The Vortex Diamondback 10x42mm Multi-Coated Binocular has a huge field-of-view, the best in its class and an enhanced fully multi-coated glass. They house phase-corrected prisms which cut down on some of the weight and bulkiness traditionally binoculars and fit well in a hunting pack. The Vortex Diamondback binoculars are waterproof, fog proof, and feature soft, tapered eyecups, making it one of the most feature-rich options available under $200. They feature a rubber armored have an argon gas filled body with very durable O-rings to ensure that the Vortex Diamondback Binoculars are capable of withstanding the harshest of conditions. They are backed by the Vortex VIP lifetime warranty so in the rare chance that you hunt hard enough to break these bad boys they will be fixed or replaced no questions asked.
