Thread: How do you judge range?

When you get out to longer distances its impossible to range distance by eye. 800 yards looks the same as 900 yards on the range, ballistically it makes a big difference.

I can judge reasonably well out to 200 yards by eye when Im looking at something I know the height (like a deer), and sometimes use the rugby field unit of measurement similar to the power pole unit of measurement. Further than that and I want to know the distance before hand or use a rangefinder.
