For the hunting conditions Baylian outlined- I'd recommend 8 or 10 power. 8x40 or 10x40 or 50. If timber hunting dominated, I'd go with 7x35.
The 10x50 will be heaviest, so that might be a consideration.
Another consideration is personal: some people have trouble holding 10x glasses steady for extended glassing. If you are one of those (I am) use 8x. BTW, when I say extended glassing, I mean holding the glasses at your eye for 5, 10, 20 minutes at a time,or longer, not a quick peek and drop them.
FWIW, I've been using 8x40's for 25 years, for all kinds of hunting. If I lost them, I'd go buy 8x40's again.
