I've gotta throw in a vote for rangefinders. With archery equipment or frontstuffers (heck, even shotguns), it's nice to be able to range distances when you get into the stand so when the deer comes into view, you have some natural markers to tell you how far away it is. I can't say I've missed too many deer without one, but for shots at the edge of ethical shooting range it is a great asset.
