IM SORRY I WATCHED THIS… I had no desire or need for a range finder… AND yet now I’m buying one for 500 bucks… 😮😮😮😮

@theoutdoorempire 2 месяца назад

Hahaha. My apologies.

@westernregenerate5806 10 месяцев назад

Great video. I’ve been researching rangefinders for a little while today and this is some of the best info I’ve gotten so far. I’m glad you focused on 3 options in detail rather than lining up and blasting through 8-10. I was leaning towards the Leopold but was concerned about it not being waterproof, but it seems like that’s not an issue.

@theoutdoorempire 10 месяцев назад

Glad it was helpful! Water doesn't seem to be a problem with that Leupold 1400. I wouldn't dunk it intentionally (again) but I'm not worried about rain or typical hunting wetness.

@1620American 10 месяцев назад

Like your thorough review. Honest information!

I’m entering my fourth year of bow hunting. Spent money on some things and went cheap on other stuff. I got Halo z1100 4years ago and it works great( 160.00$ ) my friend doesn’t laugh at me anymore after he used it.

@Happy-Trails-To-You 10 месяцев назад

Excellent review. Being new to rangefinders and not wanting to spend $$$$ on something that I don't need, this review discussed exactly what I was looking for in a reasonably priced RF. Most likely I will land on the Maven CRF.1. It has a balance of features vs price that will work for me. Thanks for the review.

@theoutdoorempire 10 месяцев назад

Glad it was helpful! I get overwhelmed by so many options so I like the good, better, best approach.

I would like to see a comparison of the two during foggy conditions. I got a Broadhead on the way and the only thing that scares me is the FOG. (Basically every morning hunt in the south east) Awesome video man. Thanks for going the extra mile, always.

@theoutdoorempire 2 месяца назад

Great point! Fog is only sometimes an issue when I hunt whitetail in North Idaho but usually not too common here.

@wades623 3 месяца назад

for sig sauer kilo is the line for rangefinders, they go by kilo 1000, 1200 etc for the max range

What about the Leupold RX-1600i TBR/W.... as compared to the Mavens? I thank you for producing a very informative/interesting video review.

@theoutdoorempire 9 месяцев назад

Good question! I don't own an RX-1600i, but I have tried one in the store and read other reviews and it appears to be a great unit as well. All the ballistics functions of the 1400 but with better glass, range, and some added weatherproofing. A lot of folks think that one hits the sweet spot and I agree that it's right in there with the Maven CRF.1 on performance. But it's quite a bit more expensive than the Maven and that was the main tie breaker for me. But you can probably find it on sale sometimes for pretty close.

@pd2865 10 месяцев назад

I had a Leupold and the LED stopped working. I liked it very much, but for the amount of actual time I used, I think it should have lasted longer. I am hesitant to buy another.

@theoutdoorempire 10 месяцев назад

Interesting, I haven't heard that before. It's also a bummer that Leupold only gives a 2 year warranty on those. If it were a Maven or a Vortex you could get it fixed or replaced under warranty.

@pd2865 10 месяцев назад

I'm retired so limited funds. So I went with the Halo Z1200 on sale at Academy Sports. The Leupold was babbled, strictly ranges only. I shoot out to 1000 yards. I can use my Mil Dot Master, but I prefer to range several targets.

@chootum8295 7 месяцев назад

My Leupold did the same just as the warranty expired. Leupold told me goodbye. Cheap import product with terrible customer service. Leupold is a scummy company. Stay away.

@wildfishingbenelux 10 месяцев назад

Very good review! Is it possible to have a range read from a specific point on a water surface? Fish activitity for example ( bubles). Thx

@theoutdoorempire 10 месяцев назад

Great question. Water is tricky for rangefinders due to the constant motion of it reflecting and refracting light all over, or absorbing the light in the water, so to speak. Since laser rangefinders use light, that creates a lot of noise and generally leads to poor accuracy or no reading at all on water. Either way, it's unreliable so it's probably not the right tool for the job.

@wildfishingbenelux 10 месяцев назад

Thanks a lot for the answer! In this case, maybe I should search for some other range finder option / solution.than the laser one. ..if available ? @@theoutdoorempire

@donculver8671 22 часа назад

I have the Maven C series binos and they are awesome, weird that Maven would not have a custom pouch for their range finders. Pretty sure I'm going for the entry level Maven, cudos to anyone who shoots anything over a 1000yds, not me with my crappy old vision :-)

@brandongriffin5840 8 месяцев назад

Have you tested any of the Athlon rangefinders? I’m curious how they might compare to maven

@theoutdoorempire 8 месяцев назад

I have not, but I'd love to.

@Sneakyjoe69 3 месяца назад

Have you found a rangefinder pouch that fits the maven crf.1 well ??

@theoutdoorempire 3 месяца назад

Not yet, but I really haven't looked that hard. Might try and upgrade for this season.

@paulheberling2750 5 месяцев назад

So, what I’m hearing is that the Leupold RF was the best

@theoutdoorempire 5 месяцев назад

Awesome deal for sure and totally does the job. But I like the glass and warranty on the Mavens better.

@paulheberling2750 5 месяцев назад

@@theoutdoorempire thanks for your review 👌

@jcscustomarchery8247 6 месяцев назад

Leupold only offers a 2 year on ALL their rangefinder regardless of the price spent. Their rangefinders are also made in CHINA if that matters to any one

@martinrps13 9 месяцев назад

Two month old video and the first one you talk about is already discontinued

@theoutdoorempire 9 месяцев назад

As I mentioned in the video the Gen 2 RX1400i is out now and the only change from the Gen1 I have is a software update that adds the newer archery holdover feature. I like to use gear for a while before I review it so I've had this Leupold for over a year and felt good about recommending it.

Leupold is about as well known as it gets and Maven has a great reputation as well. But you do you. Thanks for watching.

It's a good one for sure. Good enough for me and most other hunters probably.

@RudyHassallPMP 7 месяцев назад

This was a timely and great review. I did read the printed article on your website, which goes further in depth and includes other rangefinders. I have to ask, why the Mave CRF.1 was not included in the article? And where did it rank against all the other rangefinders in the review?

@theoutdoorempire 7 месяцев назад

It's not in there simply because I haven't yet updated that article, but it should be! Thanks for checking that out, I'll put that update on my to-do list. Check back in a few weeks. Thanks for watching!
