Currently a I carry a 18-200 but the F stops are not great on it. Works fine in the bow blind but if rifle hunting long shots at dusk/dawn are a no go. Aperture won’t let in enough light.
I also carry an old school fixed 300mm/F4.0. It’s better but I really want to find a good zoom with f2.8 or lower. But they are pricey.
This is on a Nikon D7000 body.

It depends on a lot of things. Budget, bow/rifle blind, etc.
For the money, the 150-600 is really hard to beat for its versatility.

Here are some pics from that lens taken at between 30-60 yards, and cropped.

Here is a pic I took from about 30 yards away
Wow that looks nothing like the actual pic. Trying something different.
edit: Picture was terribly distorted. will repost if I can figure how to post a high quality pic.Last edited by sierracharlie338; 10-22-2020, 05:27 PM.
