I have not tried it/test
it while bowhunting from my treestand.
But I did at least give it a try (as
weird as this sounds...):
- With help from my daughter who is home
from college, we took a long piece of
string, pre-measured to 60' (20 yards),
and tied it to a small rock......
- I climbed up my ladder onto my back
porch roof and unwound the tape measure
until it touched the ground at 15'. (I
used the height of my arms, as if
drawing a bow - not where my feet are on
the roof).
- My daughter made sure the small rock
didn't move and we made sure the
distance was 15' up and 20 yards away,
exact.
- .....then using the "rifle sights" on
the top of the Archer Range, I pressed
the button and sighted on the small
rock. I waited a few seconds and let go
of the button.
-
Bingo! It displayed 20 yards in
the side display graph.
- Then I had my daughter go get my 30'
(10 yards) tape measure and extended it
out from the small rock and stand there.
- I sighted on my daughters feet at now,
30 yards.
- You guessed it... The Archer Range
displayed 30 yards in the side display
graph!
I don't work for Archer Range or have no
investment stocks - you know what I
mean... I just wanted to try a little
shameless plug for this really neat
bowhunting tool. It really works!
