    Next Gen rangefinder

    This is a sneak preview of the next generation of hunting rangefinders as well as an unusual opportunity to view a piece of technology pre-market. In exchange, we ask only for some thoughts and discussion from those who matter most.

    The demo video for Visual Orientation System (VOS) is presented on the 2nd page of a 3 minute questionnaire. We are happy to address any questions left along with an address in the final comments section – no personal information required (State or non-US country only).

    GPS your location + range and bearing to target = reasonably accurate GPS location of target, I'd assume? Must chew the batteries, anyway.

    Think I already filled out the survey on longerangehunting, or somewhere like that.

    Spam is a type of tinned meat popular in the US.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
