There's another angle to the use of Dobs as it relates to sketching. I used to sketch with a 20" Starsplitter II (still do on occasions). It was the only scope I used for my first couple of years of sketching. What it trained me to do was to quickly memorize a feature size, position and context. I would add it to the sketch and repeat, as you put it so well, "sketch and scoot, sketch and scoot".

this is so true, couldn't have said it better!
