How do you brighten the cross hairs
Why shouldn’t archers use the LOS mode? Wouldn’t you want to see what the slope angle of the hill is? I have mine in HCD mode, but when I range a target up hill at 60 yards my arrow is a couple of inches short. When I shoot on flat ground at 60 yard my arrow is on point.
It's not 18°.
It's 14.07°.
See Phythagorean theorem formula.
Many thanks for explaining range finder modes
Good quality for reasonable price
what about VCD mode?
Would it be possible to create a laser rangefinder that utilizes a narrower beam of light so that long range shooters would be able to make use of them beyond a few hundred yards.
Do these link to a kestrel and have a digital compas?
I have an old Bushnell I bought as a new , but used one off eBay…. But it takes a 9V battery/lol 😂 so mine probably doesn't have range compensation? Or was that built into rangefinders from the beginning? Or is it a direct line of sight range? Do you think Bushnell has a warranty services ?
Ok. I want one!!! 🤙😎
