RANGE FINDER

What kind of range finder most people are using? I just got a Bushnell Chuck Adams Bow Hunter edition. I am just wondering how useful they could be for shot placements etc?

I have started using a Summit 180 SSMax this year and i find it heavy to carry it to my location. Any comments? suggestions? i find it not too noisy to set up but it slips sometimes if there is not much bark on the tree.
