Well I hunt in thick woods .I'm shooting a bow.I guess I dont need to range something 550 yards.No I love my cheap yardage pro sport.If I loose it I dont feel like I lost alot.I range find trees for distancewhile sitting in stand then put it up where it wont get wet.Then I know how far target is.Most of my shots are less than twenty yards away.I sit on top of my feeder to hunt hahahahahaha
