[QUOTE="Stgraves260, post: 2417492, member: 19988"] Deer are 3.5‘ to the top of the back from the ground. Between 15”-18” from the bottom of the stomach to the top of the back. Do you not measure your harvest and study it to become a more success hunter? T post are 4’ tall. Man the list goes on. When I was in the military I measured door ways truck body’s, 55 gallon drums, 5 gallon buckets, average man is 5’8” how tall a high back chair is, the hight of a Duce and a half. A animal is usually standing by something. Did my recon in the. milItaly and gather all the info I could. Apply those skills to hunting. Rangefinders were all ways failing. Specially in a 130 degree heat. I used my log book and scope to range things more than I did my rangefinder. Do your homework and study the things around your area you hunt. Measure the body and the head of what you hunt and it will help you drastically. Ground hogs are about 9” tall. I’d have to go back and look through my log book and give you all my measurements I have. The most difficult thing to range with your scope is a hog. If you know your area and how big you average hogs are you can try that. in my area our hogs are normally around 50-60 lbs. I use the small hog to range because there is usually more of them in a group than there is piglets and large hogs.The hog in my profile pic was shot at 998 yards. Range finder not used. I missed the first shot but hit it the second And third shot. Used nothing but my radical . Shot yot just shy of 1200 yards with no rangefinder. Yots are around 10” from bottom of stomach to top of back. Do your homework and you’ll be fine. [/QUOTE]
