Steverino,
I have had a laser range finder for about 8 years now, and I have yet to use it on game. I have killed 20+ deer over those 8 years, the exact number I have no idea about, and never once used it to range those deer. The only thing I have used it for is to measure my distance from "dwellings" because it is illegal to discharge a firearm within 150 yards of a dwelling without permission of the homeowner. Oh yeah, I used it one other time when some of my hunting buddies thought it was 250 yards to a feeding trough. I guessed 400 and it turned out to be 412.
Regarding deer herds, how are the mulies doing? I know the whitetails are doing really well, because I get to see plenty of them every night while driving around here. If it wasn't illegal, I could probably drive around the roads at night and fill up the back of my truck with deer. With so many deer around, why do we need all these gadgets to help us kill them. The odds are really stacked in our favor.
