Glassing out west demands an HD optic, but other systems can't get you the clarity you need to see a tail twitch in low light, or pick a tine out of dense cover. The redesigned Diamondback HD spotting scopes have all the horsepower the long-distance hunter needs, and they excel in lowlight—right when you need it most. Vortex has also streamlined the exterior for a sleeker, snag-free profile, building in a helical focus wheel.

Vortex has developed a backcountry hunting spotter with all the advantages of an HD optical system and none of the sticker shock. With the increased objective lens diameters and updated magnification options, the new Diamondback® HD spotting scopes strike an excellent balance between optical quality, size, weight, and packability.
