The Nikon or the Bushnell will suit your needs and both will preform to you satisfaction.  I personally like the Nikon 800 due to the size and being waterproof.  The Nikon Monarch 800 actually is the biggest selling rangefinder we sell.

Not all rangefinders will read to the close distances needed by bow hunters. This is especially true of those which reach way out. Before you chose make darn sure it will read under 25 yards. A lot of them will not.
