Spotting bino's do have their place in hunting, but can't replace what a spotter can do. It's finding bits and pieces where a spotter will pay for itself. Say for instance, you spot a gray object in the sage a long ways away. With the spotter, you can zoom on it and determine that instant if its a rock or deer. With the bino's you have to keep looking at it until the object moves or actually walk over to it to see what it is. If you have a problem squinting, try using your dominant eye or get an eyepatch.
