Over the years, I’ve zeroed in on what I look for in binoculars. Of course, where you live and what you hunt determines what you choose. If you hunt out of a blind in Texas, then you can justify a heavy set of 10×50 binoculars. But if you live in Idaho and are scrambling up mountains all day, elk hunting, then you’ll want a 10×42 to reduce weight. Sure, when it’s time to use them, I’d love a 50 since it extends your hunting time at daylight/dark, but I’m not going to end up carrying them because they’re just too heavy. So I’ve compromised and carry a 10×44, which allows me to see detailed items with the 10x, and the 44 aperture allows me to see in semi-low light conditions. All of that make sense?
With this background, you may be surprised that I tested out some 10×34 Go View binoculars, but here’s why. On most of my hunts, primo time is daybreak/dusk, but last week I had an Umarex Airgun ground squirrel hunt.

Ground squirrels, a.k.a. whistle pigs, come out way after daybreak and go underground a good hour before dark. So you don’t need a 10×50 or even a 10×44 so as to gather more light. A 10×34 works fine, plus they’re not as heavy to lug around.
For the hunt, fellow airgunner Abby Casey was going to run down from Montana. I had a lot of options as to how we were going to be hunting. One method that is fun and effective is to throw on a big Alps Mountaineering backpack and load it down with a Primos bipod, pad to set on, two airgun bottles, plenty of pellets, a camera, water, and snacks, and take off walking across the high desert country. It then hit me. The Go View 10×34 binoculars would be a lot lighter than my other binoculars, so why not hunt with them? They’d be a lot more comfortable to carry, and it’d be bright sunlight for the whole hunt.
The second morning, we met our cameramen (333 Creative Studios) and were going to utilize this method. We took off across the high plains/desert and would crest a rise and spot. So, for scenarios like this, the Go View 10x34s are going to be my go-to binoculars.
Another time will be for fishing. I usually go striper fishing in Texas twice per year. In the winter, an effective method is to follow the seagulls when they’re feeding. When they’re feeding, it is on a school of shad. Stripers can’t be in every school of shad, but 90% of the time, there’ll be fish under them.
I’ve had some wild times following the shad. Last year, there were hundreds of gulls flying in from every which way to a hot spot. We smoked the stripers that day.
Another time there were so many stripers that they’d corralled a school of shad against the bank. The shad were jumping up on a rock bank to escape. In the meantime, a flock of gulls was hovering above the rocky bank and snapping up the shad as they jumped out, which is what alerted us as to what was going on on the bank. So for striper fishing the Go View 10×34 would a good lightweight pair of binoculars to carry on the boat.
One other fishing trip that they’ll be good for. I have a remote river back in the wilderness where I backpack and flyfish. In a few spots the trail is 100 yards above the river with some awesome holes beneath you. It is steep country and a few holes you literally can’t get to but even the ones that you can, it will take 30-40 minutes to get down to and back up.
You don’t want to waste time scrambling down if there is nothing in the hole. If you had a pair of Go View 10×34 binocs with you, no biggie. Set down and glass the hole for five minutes to see if anything is feeding and if it is worth sliding down to fish. At that time of year, it is daylight from 6:00 to 9:45, so the low aperture binocs will work fine, and again, they are super lightweight to carry.
I teach Glassing for Big Game seminars every year at most of the big shows and recommend 10×44 binocs but for some of our daylight activities, I could be convinced to carry my Go View 10×34’s on activities such as fishing, whistle pig hunting, rock chuck hunting, football games and many other sports.


I looks like you should be able to buy a pair of Go View 10×34 binoculars is $229.00 and as is usual, we will close with the company specs.

“Zoom” in optics usually refers to the ability to increase or decrease multiplication factor of the viewed image, hence “zooming in” on a subject. That doesn’t seem to be possible with these fixed power binoculars.
