User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Notable supplement to GPS devices
Regardless of which GPS golf device one might have purchased, this rangefinder provides valuable distance clarifications on any course one plays. Initially I was convinced that this would be an unnecessary additional device since my GPS technology was designed to address all my needs. After purchasing this rangefinder and using it on several different courses, I realized that often times the exact yardage quoted by a GPS are off by as much as 10 yards. For the price, this is a great addition to one’s golfing accessories.
5 Stars Awesome!
After much research and user feedback on these devices, along with careful consideration of available GPS devices, I decided on purchasing the Leupold GX-1. I can say I am quite pleased with it’s function and usability.
It’s small, easy to use and handle, and very accurate.
Anyone in the market for one of these devices would do themselves a favor by picking up the GX-1.
5 Stars Amazed with the Pin Seeker ranging
Why get a range finder instead of a GPS? I bought the range finder to help me with distances I hit my clubs. The driving ranges around me are not marked very well and grass tees are always being moved. I use the range finder at the driving range before the match to adjust my yardages. This helps because I am not that consistant on how far I hit the ball yet. On the windy days on the range you can start to get a feel for how much the wind holds up or pushes each club. I hit the ball high and this can be quite and education. Another advantage I have found is know the real range to the pins. I have seen courses where the pin color indicates a front location. When you get to the green pin is in the middle. On most greens this is not an issue. On a new course we used the GPS numbers and hit to the front of the green. The green was long and started very narrow. We all ended up at least one club short of the pin.
On the course I was able to get ranges on flags that I had not counted on. I have been able to range to the flag with only being able to see the top flag portion over the horizon. I have also been able to range to the yardage poles in the fairway. It is fast and easy to use and I have been amazed with the items I have been able to range.
5 Stars Great Product – Best range finder
I did research between multiple range finders and different 3rd party reviews and ratings. This was consistently one of the best according to the reviews and ratings. I love this range finder. My friend has a buschnell and that takes around 30 seconds to get the reading back. This product takes a second to get a reading back which helps out with pace of play. Can’t say enough about this product. This is the best range finder out there for its price.
5 Stars Perfect for me
A lazer range finder works on all courses which is why I chose it over a GPS locater. That said this unit is perfect. Crystal clear and accurate it’s lowered my strokes bigtime. Some may find it difficult to hold without shaking but propping it on the cart or even a club to gain the steady hand will quickly resolve that issue. It’s a rugged little unit which attaches perfectly to my bag and has taken all kinds of gentle abuse.
