Guest zach90 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 why would you want that? whenever you want to use it you'd have to lift your bow up with it. Bad idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VermontHunter Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 why would you want that? whenever you want to use it you'd have to lift your bow up with it. Bad idea. I think the object of this would be that when you are at full draw, and aimed at your intended target it would give the actual yardage .. without have to range your target then raise your bow and hope your target hasen't moved .. Just my guess .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illinois59 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I have never heard of one. Maybe you have found a need. Maybe if you could attach the button to the grip so that the hunter could range the animal while holding at full draw? just a thought.

m gardner Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 They have been around for years in one form or another. The latest has colored panels that you match to the deer's chest then shoot the yardage on that panel. You can also gap the deer or elk with sight pins and figure the yardage. The best had different size circles for your pins and you just shot with the one or between the two that best matched the height of the chest.

GWSmith Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 There used to be a Bow Mounted RangeFinder made by Bushnell but I believe they have been discontinued. It used to operate by a trigger on the riser. I found a picture awhile back but have not been able to find it again online like before:( I found these low tech rangefinders online: http://www.deadonrangefinder.com/ http://www.bullseyearcheryrangefinder.com/ I've heard of people using 3-D decoys and making thier own version of them as well;) OMG...I used the search feature for the first time on this website...LOL Here's the link to that picture I talked about above: http://www.opticsplanet.net/bushnell-yardage-pro-bow-laser-rangefinder-200100.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
