A correlation that I could make would not translate well to you or anyone else.Do you have a range finder?I think the best way to estimate yardage is to simply get better at the skill of estimating yardage. This can be done by "practicing" estimating yardage by guessing the distance of objects in your surroundings and then using a rangefinder to verify. As you do this you will get better at estimating distance. As mentioned by Ontario_caller, learn to estimate distance in segments whether they are 10 yard or 20 yard segments. Or you figure out what your max range is for your gun and then learn what that distance looks like. Be sure to practice this in both open and dense areas as sometimes thick vegetation or open areas can play tricks on your eyes.

I place it on the ground in front of blind and then walk out until I feel my fingers hit the tape at 25 yards and place my first decoy there and then walk to the end of the rope which is 30 yards and put my next decoy there or slightly to the side of the other decoy and then I know when turkey gets between those two decoys I am golden.

(This may not be a problem with people like me that blind hunt) but why spend several hundred dollars on a rangefinder when I get the same advantage from a $3.00 rope?
