Found out that you can do this just the other day. If you need to know distances at your regular honey hole and dont have a rangefinder, then this is a great option. Probably wont work out too well for you archery guys, but its a great way to range open territory. Its very accurate. I checked it on a couple of football fields and its accurate to tenths and sometimes hundredths of a yard.
Basically, you just have to make sure the distance measuring tool is enabled in the "Maps Labs" section. Then click on the tool in the lower left hand corner to start measuring. Click "I'm Feeling Geeky" to get a drop down menu to change things over to yards (or meters if you like), and then start plotting points. Its that easy.

This thing works great! I checked it out and wrote down every thing from my front door! Thanks
