[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1709819, member: 92702"] I've never thought I needed that because of the way I hunt nowadays. Haven't been out West in years. We hunt deer in big beanfields. The land is dead flat, so there are no uphill, downhill to contend with, and the wind almost always lays in late afternoon. What little wind there is usually blows in the same direction across the flat ground. You have all the time in the world for a long shot at a calm, feeding animal usually, and a dead solid rest. Using a combo seldom is an issue except during the rut when the bucks are moving and not feeding. However, using three devices, LRF, wind meter, and phone is cumbersome, and I think I am going to try and eliminate one of them. I know the three mentioned above are good units. The Leica will interface with a kestrel with AB, and I know the RF part of it is top notch. I haven't worked with the software of any of them, and that's what I am most interested in. The price is close enough on all three that it doesn't matter. [/QUOTE]
