    Gabe, great review. You are so incredibly thorough...love it! You make me feel like I can trust your reviews because you are so thorough. I don't feel like you are trying to "sell" me -- just giving me the truth. And that's awesome!

    Between these, the vortex AB’s, the Steiner and the burris which ones would you say overall are the best?

      @BackwoodsPursuit  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey there! I can speak to the Vortex and Burris as we didn't have them in our big review, but between these and the Steiner (we had both of those in our review), ID take the Athlon personally. Thanks for watching!

    How does the glass/light compare to a Fury or Sig3K? I liked the range of the SIG 3K but the glass was horrible to use for spotting deer. I ended having to bring both the SIG and my Meopta 15x56. I'm trying to find a combo that has great glass and decent ranging so I can just bring one piece of equipment instead of 2.

    • @BackwoodsPursuit
      @BackwoodsPursuit  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there! I haven't had a chance to compare the Fury yet, but I have compared the Sig 10K. Very different glass than the Sig rangefinding binoculars. They don't have that blue tint that the SIGs do, and are brighter for sure. As you probably know....the SIG rangefinder is far superior though. The edge to edge is a bit lacking in these Cronus, but the center image is very good. I hope that helps!

    Would like to have a side by side with the sig kilo 3000 box.
    Wouldn't a outdoorsman stud work with these just like the sig bdx?

    • @BackwoodsPursuit
      @BackwoodsPursuit  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Caleb! We've got the Sig Kilo 10k that we'll be comparing these to in an upcoming Rangefinder Bino review project! Stay tuned for that. Thale Outdoorsman's may work for these...I'm not quite sure though. I'd have to give them a call to find out if it's compatible or not. Thanks!

      @0wnedYaToo hey! Well, these are rangefinder binos and the Conquest HD are not, so it's not a fair comparison. That said, I'd take the Conquest HD unless I needed a rangefinder bino. Thanks for watching!

    Does this Athlon come with a hassle free NO BS no questions asked lifetime warranty on it's electronics?

    • @BackwoodsPursuit
      @BackwoodsPursuit  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey! Yes, the Athlon Lifetime Warranty covers their laser rangefinders...they have a great warranty. And, this Cronus UHD Rangefinder Binocular stacked up quite well in our upcoming rangefinder binocular shootout! Thanks for watching!

    • @commonsense5709
      @commonsense5709 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sure hope you include the Vortex and Burris in the comparison test. As far as I know only Burris, Vortex and Athlon are the only 3 brands with real VIP lifetime forever warranties on their electronics while other brands only have one year to five years maximum actually making them disposable throw aways especially Bushnell wise electronics only have one year including the illuminated reticles in their scopes under the guise of a lifetime warranty which isn't even a real lifetime warranty everyone would expect no wonder Bushnell got an F rating according to the BBB.

    • @BackwoodsPursuit
      @BackwoodsPursuit  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Common Sense we'll try to include them, but it's gonna be tough given that we've been working this review for almost 2 years, and those Burris(and Leopold) just came out. The Vortex Fury have been impossible to find as well unfortunately.

    Please review the newly released Burris rangefinder binoculars. I'm looking for one that has better glass than the Vortex Fury that also has a hassle free NO BS real FOREVER lifetime warranty even on their electronics unlike the rest of the brands that don't warranty their laser rangefinder for life since all electronics eventually fail and don't want to buy an expensive disposable throw away rangefinder. SIG isn't an option since their warranty is only 5 years from date of manufacture and NOT date of purchase. Bushnell is the absolute worst only one year in their electronics including Illuminated reticles in their scopes regardless if the warranty states lifetime warranty which isn't even a real lifetime warranty that they deny when you actually try to use their warranty see BBB gave Bushnell an F rating for screwing over way too many of their own customers come warranty time.
