Better than description says!,
The son wanted one for his birthday and what the son wants the dad has to have. I surprised them both.
I read through product descriptions and reviews for 2 days on a multitude of web sites and settled on this one as the best one in my price range.
They both love it – the accuracy is within a very acceptable range.
Neither one can argue over distances any more.
It’s proved to be accurate for both NE Missouri deer and turkey.
The terrain has not always been the best, but the Nikon 8370 550 Laser Rangefinder proved to be up to the task.
When the guys are happy and there is deer hanging – I’m happy.

|Great Rangefinder,
I’ve bow hunted 5 times. In those times I’ve shot at two deer: The first was a miss…I shot under the deer b/c I grossly underestimated the yardage. The second opportunity came after I received the Nikon ProStaff 550 for a Christmas present from my girlfriend. It was a kill.
This is a very nice range finder. It’s simple and compact enough to fit in your vest pocket. The Nikon Archer’s Choice offers inclination compensation but with today’s flat shooting bows (mine is set up to shoot around 275fps) and after having used the ProStaff 550, I can’t imagine that it makes much of a difference. Twenty yards from a 15′ treestand is going to shoot the same as twenty yards from the ground. Although physics dictates that the arrow trajectory will be affected as elevation changes, it’s not going to be very much when you are only shooting twenty to forty yards. My kill came at twenty yards, the ProStaff 550 ranged it at twenty yards and my twenty yard pin put the arrow right where it was supposed to. What more can you ask for in a rangefinder? The bonus of this rangefinder over the Archer’s Choice is the additional yardage/range capabilities (The Archer’s Choice only ranges up to a 100 yards).

|Excellent small range finder,
I have a older range finder that is just to big to have at the ready. This range finder is 1/3 the size of my old one and measures closer and farther then the old one. This is a great range finder at an even better price!
