Range finders

[barney fife]

One piece of gear is the best and fastest. Last year I was set up glassing across a valley with my wife and youngest daughter. Spotted elk coming from the north, moving at a fast walk down a trail. The whole thing should have been on video but that's another story. I told the girls that when it happens it's going to happen fast, I'm not going to wait. I initially ranged them at 750 and dialed up to that range. But they weren't going to stop. I ranged ahead and found an opening on the trail, it was 703. I dialed back to 700 and sure enough, the lead cow came into that opening and stopped. My tag was filled. Equipment is key and having one piece of equipment instead of two is vital for long range hunting.
