RE: judging distance
I use alot of the same methods with a twist.If there are trees and brush or other objects that you can project from,try and pick a tree or something prominent that you have the yardage down on and then try and project that to something much smaller at the same distance and get the percieved difference.Also go and pace off 40 yds through a good wooded ridge and see just how far away that distance is.Ron
