Yep. One of the first things I do is to range trees, stumps etc so if when a deer come thru I know the range

Same here. I have a hard time judging distance so I range a perimeter when I get settled.

I also try and guess the range first and then use the range finder to how close I got to the actual yardage. It makes me alot better at judging yardage if I don't have time to range a deer that I may see going to and from the stand.

No, I only shoot 1 pin and Im fairly accurate judging distance. Wores case if the shot is further than I think my shot misses low.
