" jsasker" was begging to be talked out of buying the RF. I was only doing my bit.

I know several fellow-shooters that own RF' s. They (RF) remain in their packs or at their house.

I know that many hunting techniques are an individual thing. However, for all 6 of my positions, I have paced and know the distances within all the fire zones for each position sometime during early spring or summer. If I move during the season, I only move myself.

I suppose if a person moves his/her stand a lot during the actual hunting period, and wants to reduce the noise and traffic already created by moving and installing a stand, and then whacking out fire zones, an RF might be productive to determine the range within fire zones now seen from the stand.

However, I have a question. If the benefit of an RF in the bush is to determine distances within your zones from your stand so that you can eliminate walking around your new position that you have quietly slipped into, what do you do when looking through the view-finder you discover there are obstructions in your lines-of-fire?
