How much difference is there really? - 02/22/13
I've been looking at getting a new rangefinder. My current one, a Bushnell YP 800 has done an excellent job. It is just a bit big and a little dim. Now though, it seems every manufacturer is touting the need for horizontal distance calculations. I've never used a unit that could do that so; I'm left wondering just how much of an advantage such a feature offers. Do I really gain anything truly useful with this feature or would a simple, and less expensive line-of-sight rangefinder be sufficient?
