RE: Range finders?
i dont use them in the woods. i dont own one. funny how i can come within 25yds of a groundhog out to 300+ pretty easily and thats close enough for me...but when it comes to a 3d target in the woods within 50 i mess up and would miss...but after a couple shoots i been getting within a yard. the next shoot im shooting without a range finder. before id guess then range it then shoot it..saved me arrows lol. with some work ranging isnt overly hard. yes its a bit different once your 15-30 foot above the ground...i usually just figure out where 5yds is and keep multipling the distance...seems to work for me. my prehung stands i KNOW im hunting i will probably borrow a range finder and shoot some landmarks and write them down so i know...evening hunts i want to try and pace off 20yds or something so i know. definently dont need one. most my spots i cant see clearly enough to shoot past my top pin so it makes it easy...probably wont shoot past my top pin in the woods anyways..
