            It's pretty difficult to beat the Archer's Choice for bow hunting.. no muss no fuss...

              I think I gave about $200.

                Those are all 200+, but may just want to go to Academy and try everything they have and see what you like the best

                  Academy just started carrying these and they appear to be pretty good for the money, $129.00 I have the Bushnell Sport 450 and it serves it's purpose, but I don't like the size, it's a little big.

                    Nikon's new Archers Choice is awesome... around $250 but I think you can get it a little cheaper

                      I bought a Nikon 550 Riflehunter for my elk hunt. It made more sense to me than the Archer's Choice. It is virtually the same unit with a much greater range. The extra range came in very handy under spot and stalk conditions.

                        Ain't it got a bunch of extra stuff to clutter up the reading? I've looked at a couple of the longer range ARC units and they seem to have more buttons and dials to fumble with...

                          try ebay, sometimes you can find good deals on which ever rangefinder you are looking for.

                            I just bought the Bushnell Bowhunter Chuck Adams Edtion 800 Rangefinder. I tried it out at Academy and really liked it. I found it on Ebay brand new for $219 with free shipping so I saved a few bucks. Academy has it for $249 plus tax.

                              I have had a Bushnell that has been beat up by the airlines countless times and used daily for about 6 years, then off and on. It has been very good. I'm sure they are all good but I have had good luck with this unit.
