In the past I haven't done much long range hunting, so to buy an expensive rangefinder wasn't very feasible for me to use.
However, last season my wife sent me on a Texas hunt where ranging was neccessary (4oo yards), plus I could use it in NH for my regular hunting.
Meaning bow hunting... In the past I just paced off my 20-25 yard shot and that has worked fine,
but now I'm comfortable and accurate enough to shoot further and the drop of my arrow for the longer distances needs to be accurate.

I went with the Nikon 440, I can't remember the exact price but was between $150-200. This price range is cheap enough to own one!
