Last fall and again this season I glassed the Bushnell 8 x 36 Excursion EX® Binocular. This is a sweet little piece of glass at just 21.5 oz with a ton of features. I guide for a living and my rig is my office on wheels, and the Excursion EX® stay with me. They continue to receive a good workout but still look good with the beating I give them. The Binocular is deceiving it is so light and tough that you would think the quality would be missing. I can tell you it is not the Excursion EX® is waterproof; multi coated, with BaK-4 roof prisms, open hinged with quick center focus. We have tested Binoculars with all the features of the Excursion® that cost much more that two hundred and fifty dollars. This is a Mid-Size Binocular and works on long treks in to the backcountry, its quality, and lightweight are a mixture that works.
