When you're out stalking big game or dangerous game, you often are required to take a shot from quite a distance, like 500 to 600 yards.
Based on distance-measuring laser technology, Bushnell range finders are used to accurately select a target and tell you precisely how far away that target is.
The distance is within plus or minus 1 yard and is displayed instantly.
Yardage Pro range finders feature a built-in 'through the lens' LCD display that relays the information quickly and clearly.
With an invisible, eye-safe, Class 1 laser, a beam is bounced off your target with the press of a button. A high-speed internal measuring device calculates the distance by measuring the time required for the laser beam signal to hit the target and bounce back.
You can see the distance in either yards or meters - in less than a second from the time you press the button with Bushnell range finders.
The distance that you can measure objects depends on their reflectivity. Hard surfaces that reflect light better can be measured at greater distances. Soft things - like deer - will be more difficult to measure at greater distances.
Bushnell Range Finders have several features to help you be more accurate:
Rain - precipitation can affect accuracy readings, so there is a setting to compensate for rain.
Scan - this features gives you a constant display of distance while you point at different objects.
Bull's-eye - Bushnell range finders feature a cross-hair for short range target acquisition. This allows you to zero in on small game without accidentally measuring background targets.
Brush - this setting ignores the foreground (for example brush, trees, branches) and only displays the distance of background objects (like a deer or elephant).
ARC - Angle Range Compensation gives you true horizontal distance when in BOW mode (useful when shooting from a tree stand) and bullet drop in inches when in Rifle mode.
Bushnell range finders give you the features you need to drop game at any range your equipment can reach.
