yup. like JonyNov says, do the math!

Total BS for archery hunting. Total marketing gimmick. The arc differnce on any bowhunting scenario is negligible at best.

If you are goat hunting in the moutains with a long range rifle it would be helpful to rang that animal 400 yds away and 300 feet elevated. Sure I'll say that is helpful but bowhunting????

C'mon everyone do the math! I laugh when i see that commercial with the bowhunter ranging a deer about 30 yds from his stand with the "all new ARC technology". Probably very close to the math JonnyN gave.Yup deer is actually a little less than 1/2 a yard further. Better use the 30.47 yd pin!!!!!!!
