Who Are We?

“Not all those who wander are lost.” – J.R.R. Tolkien

Welcome to RangeFinder Today!

At RangeFinder Today our goal is to break down the best optics and gear for shooters and hunters in a straightforward way so you get more out of your equipment and thoroughly enjoy your time doing what you love.

We are just as interested in being helpful to a beginner as we are those who are more advanced. In fact, we have many helpful articles geared towards those just getting into shooting and hunting for the first time. We plan on continuing to encourage everyone to enjoy our exciting pastime!

Our authors have a vault of knowledge with firearms, hunting, and most things outdoors. They are each involved in different areas of shooting and hunting and have individual skill sets to share with you.

Optics and gear are not cheap and we all invest a lot in our passion. We want to help you make a better purchase decision with our “Buyer Guides” and in-depth articles that provide you with some useful information along the way!

Our Authors

Eric Patton – Author

Eric Patton has been an avid outdoorsman all his life and has hunted and fished most of the Eastern United States for over three decades. During that time he’s taken almost every North American game animal with either a rifle or bow.

For the past 15 years, he has engaged heavily in shooting competitions in various disciplines including traditional archery, handgun, and long-range rifle and has shot in Glock shooting sports competitions, USPSA, and with the Civilian Marksmanship Program.

In addition to competing, Eric also really enjoys his time as a search and rescue team member in two states and teaching outdoor skills and land navigation.

He’s a huge wealth of knowledge and we are very fortunate to have him lend his experience at RangeFinder Today. LP has been there and done that many times over.


David Joseph – Author

David Joseph was raised in a hunting family and has been shooting for as long as he can remember. His Dad taught David and his brothers a healthy respect and love for firearms and the outdoors. He’s a U.S. Army Infantry veteran and is happiest when he’s outdoors doing almost anything.

Clay shooting is something David used to do a lot of growing up, mainly getting ready for bird hunting. He just recently started getting back into it and going to the trap range. He doesn’t know if a trap league is in his future yet but it’s been a lot of fun and brought back a ton of great memories.
