Save Money on Optics Purchases!

Many birders are already familiar with Eagle Optics, America's largest independent retailer of binoculars, spotting scopes, tripods and accessories for birders and others. Eagle Optics is so well-known because:

• They consistently offer the absolute lowest price you can find anywhere and

• Their knowledgeable staff delivers terrific service and advice and

• They stock practically every optics product known to humankind.

I know from considerable direct experience just how good Eagle Optics is, because I not only have patronized them myself for years but also have heard good things from pretty much everyone I've recommended to them.

And now, through my participation in Eagle Optics' exclusive "Pro Referral Program," when you purchase optics or accessories through Eagle Optics, you get a further discount of 5% or 10% (depending on the product) off Eagle's already unbeatable price -- nice!

Here's how the Pro Referral Program (PRP) works:

• I am (to put it politely) "passionate" about birding optics and know what products are available at various price points, as well as what products might work best for each individual. I invite you to work with me personally to help you choose the best optics for you.

• When you're ready to buy, phone Eagle Optics at 800-289-1132 (it's not currently possible to apply PRP discounts to online purchases).

• Give the friendly salesperson my Pro Referral Program code, which I can give you and which is on my business card.

• That's it! You then get 10% off products from Eagle Optics, Vortex, Audubon, and Radian (tripods). On other manufacturers' products (Nikon, Swarovski, Pentax, etc.) you get 5% off.

For my part in this process, I get a credit equal to the amount you saved towards a future optics purchase of my own at EO. I'm using these credits to gradually acquire several pairs of Leupold Yosemites -- top-notch binoculars designed specifically for kids! -- to share on my kids' walks. (They cost about $90 each.) Handing a child a pair of binos she or he can actually use can open new doors and support that Wow! experience that connects a child to Nature for life. That's why I'm so passionate about binoculars! So buying through my PRP program connection is win-win just like when you buy at your local Audubon shop.

I look forward to help you get the best optics for you at the lowest price possible, while helping connect kids with nature at the same time. Thank you for considering this option.

So please remember me (and Eagle Optics) next time you're shopping for optics, tripods, digiscoping gear, etc.
