Athlon Optics Ares G2 15-45x65 UHD 45 degrees Spotting Scope, Green

I was on the edge about purchasing this spotter, when I could have gone with something that was more "proven". Boy, am I happy and impressed with my purchase. Along side my buddy's Razor, while mule deer hunting, I thought my Ares had a better, brighter, deeper and more crisp image. I would try to talk anybody into purchasing one of these if they were looking for a spotter. I will add, it is huge and heavy but, I knew that before I purchased it and knew it was only going to be a pickup and range spotting scope.

I bought the Ares 15-45x65. This is the first spotting scope I've ever owned. I've looked through other scopes, but can't say that I can accurately compare one scope to another. With that being said, I'm impressed with this scope. It's lightweight and packable. I had no issues figuring it out and focusing/adjusting the magnification. The dials turn easy enough, but not too easy. I have not used it in the field yet, but have tested it from my porch in different light conditions. I was very impressed with the amount of light it let in on the highest magnification 15-20 minutes after the sun set. I have no complaints about this scope, especially the eye-relief. I've looked through other, older scopes, and that was always a huge problem with those. I recommend this scope and will update if anything changes once I have a chance to use it in the field.
