I bought mine more for rifle season than archery. I've taken some long shots over the last few years and would like to know exactly how far I've been shooting so my brother will stop ragging on me that it's not that far.
As for archery.
One of the places I hunt sometimes is 25 ft up and on the side of a hill with about a 50 degree slope. In a situation like that the compensation I'm sure will help.
As for saving my money. I grew-up poor and couldn't afford squat. Now i have the financances to buy pretty much any toy i want. So, I bought something I've always wanted to have. I say it's your money and you spend it like you want.
The more toys the better.
