I HAVE $600.00 TO SPEND ON BINOCULARS. WILL USE MOSTLY FOR HUNTING. HOW ABOUT SOMEONE TELLING ME WHAT TO PURCHASE.

Without more specifics, I'll just suggest a good all around bino.  I would look into a Kahles off of the Sample List or a Pentax SP or Minox.  All in the 10x42/43 range.

Ok start looking at the Nikon Sport and Marine series and then move to Stieners.  7x50 is a popular combination for most general hunting work, but 8x30 and 7x42 work well too.  There is lots of great glass out there, but look at the models with each eye peice focusing indivualy for  an added magin sturdyness and water proofness.

For $600 I'd look at Kahles or spend the extra $100 and go with the Zeiss Classics
