[Farmall] LASER DISTANCE METER_TRACTOR PULLING

One thing to keep in mind is that a Laser Distance Meter measures in 
a straight line.

If the meter is at a fixed location, and the sled is pulled 100 ft 
straight down the track you will read 100 ft.
If the next pull goes 100 ft down the track and drifts 10 ft to the 
side then you will read 100.498

Now the guy who drifted did pull further, but do you want to count 
the part of his pull that was not in the right direction?

I am not a puller, so I don't know the correct answer to this.
