Spent the week in Terrel county trying to hunt down a mule deer buck. 100 miles on the Ranger and no telling how many on foot. 20 sections with very few feeders and deer don't seem to care about them after some rain. But I figured it would be an edicational game to see if yall can range the feeder. I walked around the formation and shot these pics at the same feeder trying to walk up a buck on top. I ranged with the reticle first then hit it with the laser. I was 10 yards wrong, 40 yards wrong, and 30 yards wrong. Those that know how, just post ranges. We'll make the formula and technique known later.

A long way, but that's a left handed rifle.
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

dang, sorry you got so bored Wasn't bored, there is just a ton of country to cover. It was hot and the deer were staying up top, so that's where I was working on Thursday. Figured I'd do this while stopping for a drink of water and to glass. Dang mulies can hide in the brush right in front of you.
