As already mentioned Warn clothing is the most important advancement since 1980. In the 80s I was hunting Miss & Al. and suffered a lot.
Before 1996 I had no/little open territory to hunt. From 96 On I’ve hunted cutovers & regrowth c/os so the LRF has been a great asset to me. I range objects in the areas I hunt before game is seen.
I always range from the deer back to where I was. VERY few Xs I’ve had the opportunity to range a deer before shooting. This past season was 1 exception. I had time to range a deer at 199 yds before shooting. I was in strange territory and wasn’t sure of distance.
THEN & now I seldom could see deer much past 400 yds. So charts & dialing are no advantage to me. However Fast, Flat, bullets allow me to shoot fairly quick (ly) to 400 w/o ranging - read chart - dial - then aim.
I do understand BC and trajectory. I have so long a deer Season I don’t have to hunt in Rain or Hi Wind. I’m glad.
All said, I get along nicely using my preferred C C billets with decent B C.
So warm clothing & LRFs are the best improvements to me.
