Needing a spotter setup and looking at these 2 in particular for my price range. Both will be the 15-45X65 versions
Anyone have experience with both?
I've read a bunch of reviews online and it looks like the Athlon is the better of the two scopes.
Doug has them both, $599 for the Leo and $650 for the Athlon, hoping they have a sale soon.
What says the THF?

I have the Athlon Ares G2 15-45x65 angled. My first spotter. Wasn't sure if I'd want one. I like it and the size works great for my backpack hunts. Bought it from gr8fuldoug along with a tripod.
My botnet is bigger than yours.

Performance is excellent, and I have Meopta S2's to compare. The Ares was stellar on my buddy's aoudad hunt this past weekend.

Thanks, this will be my first spotter too. Not sure why I haven't bought one before, just never really a need. Tired of barrowing everyone else's at the matches. Only took me 2 years It would be my pleasure to discuss this and to your door pricing with you Well that was easy, Athlon it is. Thanks Doug. Guys it really pays to call Doug. You won't be sorry.

Good to hear, all the videos and reviews I've read on it were really good.
