Default Laser Range Finder on a Bow Site

They exist? Or a range finder you can mount with your sight? Sure would be nice.

I thought about that. It would be very cool. I was thinking that the you could have it so the rangefinder would adjust your single pin sight accordingly. There would probably be a lot of problems with that. I don't think they would be cost effective and they might add a lot of weight.

Bushnell is the only one who made them I think? But, they discontinued them two years ago. You can still find them used, they cost between $100 to $150.They are sort of cumbersome on the bow though, I personally would never put one on, they add to the clutter of the bow and make itless simple. Also, if you put one on your bow, you can't enter the record into Pope and Young. Not that you'd want to but it's just an FYI.

It's cool, but I think it needs some work.
