thanks.If he has no name binos currently he probably wouldn't have a brand preference. I have non HD diamondbacks currently and they do fine but are a little rough at last light. I bought my wife some leuepold Mckenzie bx-1 (non hd) a couple years ago and they are hands down better than my non HD diamondbacks. With the Alpines being a step above the Mckenzies and the HD rating I'd personally go with those.
With an ignorant comment like "I wouldn't invite you back if you gifted me Vortex Binos" what more do I need to know? That's 1. extremely shallow of you to say, and 2. it's a gift... Are you that ungrateful? Not giving off a "get to know me first" vibe. Just straight up disrespectful. Lots of people worth getting to know, but responses like that really kill any interest in getting to know you.If you’re “giving me a gift”, what other reason would it be for?
It is for a “land owner gift” to tell him “thanks for letting me have access to your property.”
The correct answer would be to find out what brand he has a preference for.
I have had nothing but bad luck with any vortex product I’ve tried. If his experience has been the same but he’s a huge fan of Burris, then get him Burris binos. Or even Simmons if that’s the guys preference.
Find out what his personal brand loyalty lies with.
The reputation of vortex would have me off that brand in a heart beat.
My remaining warranty replacement scope will likely go to my semi mechanic since he’s a huge vortex advocate.
Pretty bold of you to assume you won’t want to hunt with me anyway since you’ve never interacted here with me at all. Not have you even remotely attempted to get to know who I really am.
I don’t fall for or following the marketing. I see and observe what works for others and myself and go with it. I’m not upgrading everything every season just because that’s what the marketing company is pushing as latest and greatest.
Enjoy your corner of the woods. I’ll go enjoy mine.

I have 2 sets of binos, 2 scopes, and a spotting scope from Vortex and have never sent anything in for warranty. I've had the scopes for 5 years, binos for 3, and spotter for 2.
Every brand has some issues. Google Leupold scope tracking issues. Traditionally, this forum hates Vortex. There's other forums that love Vortex.
Rokslide members aren't anti Vortex like most people here. General consensus seems to be positive over there.Which forums love Vortex?
Go with the Leupolds.
Have had Leupold scopes on my rifles for 35 years and no issues at all.
Cheap gifts are just that, cheap. Give something worth while.
They get it free dude!! FREE!Rokslide members aren't anti Vortex like most people here. General consensus seems to be positive over there.
If Vortex was actually as "cheap" as you guys think they are, hunters like Remi Warren and Steve Rinella wouldn't waste their time with them. ANY optics company would be happy to partner with either of those 2 guys. Yet they choose to partner with Vortex.
I get it, it's not the brand you use, but don't sh!t on it just because you don't use them.
Clearly. But you don't think Leupold would give them for Free???They get it free dude!! FREE!
I have had exactly 3 pieces from Votrex. All 3 went back for repairs right out of the box.Rokslide members aren't anti Vortex like most people here. General consensus seems to be positive over there.

Maybe Remi and Rinella get their Votex out of the special pile.
Maybe you're just really unlucky? My stuff has been flawless. I don't personally know anyone who has had an issue with any vortex product.I have had exactly 3 pieces from Votrex. All 3 went back for repairs right out of the box.

Ya that's it---luck.Maybe you're just really unlucky? My stuff has been flawless. I don't personally know anyone who has had an issue with any vortex product.
