Leica Geovid Pro 8x32 as a bowhunting specific rangefinder

[VASolocam]

Looking for info on the suitability of these binos as a bowhunting specific rangefinder combo. I am especially interested in the performance of the angle compensation on very steep terrain. I have a mountain goat hunt coming up in bc next fall and am debating this bino vs something like the Leopuld full draw 5 rangefinder. Any info would be extremely helpful. I have read a lot of reviews but nothing specific to archery shots in steep terrain.
Thanks, Dave

@amassi and @Formidilosus both have hands-on experience with geovid pros in the field, maybe they can help you out.

They’d work but I really prefer a stand alone rangefinder for archery
Just do to body dimensions I can drop a tethered rangefinder and shoot my bow
Binos have to go into chest carrier

Thanks very much. I can definitely see your point. I rely on the ability to drop my rangefinder when needed as well. I like the idea of having just one unit do everything, but was worried the functionality just wouldn’t be as intuitive.

The Geovid Pro RF works the same as others- angle comp and all.
