Yes, huntingbry that's sort of where I was going, I just didn't want it to turn into a "I limit myself more than you so I am better" I just wanted to let everyone lay out thier "terms" and show that sometimes people do impose restrictionsupon themselves and the way in which they hunt other than a rack/agelimitation for bucks.
It all basically stemmed from me and germ pretty much limiting ourselves to 20 yd shots and not really even planning for anything farther and some people didn't seem to grasp that someone would actually limit themselves in that way.
Yes we all have things we do different than others. My 20 ydrule is because I want to limit the chance of something "Bad" happening. Within my 20 yard radius I feel I can put a killing shot on any deer.
As for not using a range finder, well it really is very simple. I sight my bow in to my20 paces. So I march out my 20 paces and set up my "kill zone" at my stand sights also.
Same for 3d I sight my bow in off my steps. When I check distance I step it off. To me I just get a better "feel" of the distance. Some people are visual learners, I am not. I need to experiance the distance and this helps me in the field also.
When I go west I will have my Leica 900 Scan
