Bushnell TROPHY XTREME Manual De Instrucciones página 9

When line of sight distances from 7-199 yards are displayed, the Bow mode indicator will automatically be
displayed along with angle and a compensated distance. If distances greater than 199 yards are displayed, the
Bow mode Indicator will automatically turn off along with compensated distances.
BOW MODE EXAMPLE
In the display image on the previous page, line of sight is 32 yards, angle is -44 degrees, and the Angle
Range Compensated distance is 23 yards. The " " means "play" or "shoot as," so instead of shooting as
32 yards, shoot as 23 yards. If you were to shoot as if 32 yards, you would shoot over the top of the deer
because of the severe angle.
The line of sight distance will display in the primary numeric display and the inclination and horizontal
distance will display in the secondary numeric displays. Bushnell determined through extensive testing and
®
interviews with high-profile bow hunting experts that multiple bow ballistic groups were not necessary. Bow-
hunters want to know true horizontal distance because that is how they practice shooting, and once they
confidently know that, they can make any necessary adjustments. Giving the bow-hunter anything else other
than horizontal distance creates additional confusion and uncertainty.
Many people mistakenly believe that uphill shots perform differently from downhill shots because of gravity.
However, it is not due to gravity, but more of an aberration of the sighting system used on bows. The sighting
pin on a bow resides several inches above the mechanical axis of the arrow. For example, when one is aiming
23 degrees up an incline, the arrow is at a different angle.
NOTE: We took the most commonly used features and included them all in a simple to use, one button
operation device. This laser rangefinder always functions in Bow mode from 7-199 yards. The device will
provide line of sight distance only when objects greater than 199 yards are acquired.
