How much per acre is a typical hunting lease in upstate NY. Anyone know?

Rangefinder, who has one, any good?

I think they're great but like stated above... don't try and use them while the deer is coming in to you. The way I like to do this to go to your stand(s) 6 weeks in advance, mid day. Measure and mark several trees at the max distance in your shooting lanes. I sight my one pin at 25 yds so I mark my trees at 25 yds. That way, any deer inside this radius you are all set. There are a few good ones for $200. -
As an older hunter, almost 57, I've hunted since I was 16. Never missed an opening day. Took up bowhunting 6 years ago... duh why did I wait? Anyway... I was always a cheapskate when it came to binos. When I add up the all the $69 and the $75 and the $119 and the $139 or so I have spent over the years I shoulda spent the $450+/- I spent a few seasons ago. I bought a pair of Zeiss 10X30, fairly small and compact. Really... just bite the bullet and buy one good pair that will last for ever. A good set of binos are so valuable.
