Better than SkyCaddie
|
| Review Date: October 14, 2009 |
| Reviewer: G. Nelson, Milwaukee,WI USA |
| I used a SkyCaddie for about 3 years and was paying annual fees for downloads for my state. I started traveling out of state and wanted something I could use without added fees. This device was perfect for my needs. It allows me to shoot distance to any object. It is easy to use. It uses a 9-volt battery that should last for a year and does not need recharging. You need to be able to see the object you are targeting but I seldom play courses with blind shots where I need distances. The slope feature gives you adjusted distances to help your confidence in club selection. This is a great device! |

| it is very accurate and easy to use. I don't have to look for distance markers anymore, which saves time. I also found a way to measure the length of my strokes. I live in the Netherlands and after ordering I received it within one week. |
Bushnell Pro 1600 Slope Edition Laser Rangefinder with Pinseeker
|
| Review Date: February 11, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Grant Lovaasen, |
| Product was exactly what I expected at a far better price than in the retail stores. It's use takes a little bit of practice, but it is far handier than pacing off from yardage markers and trying to guess at where the pin is relative to the center of the green. |

| I am more than satisfied with this rangefinder. I must admit that I had some doubt about the usefulness of this product. I used it at some already familiar golf courses and I used it some Not so familiar coures. In both situations, I came to have a greater appreciation for my rangefinder. It's very accurate, more so that any other GPS or rangefinders I used in the past. I wholeheartedly recommend this product to all golfers. It's a little pricy, however. |

I bought this range finder for my wife for her birthday. I was tired of trying to find the distance markers on the course for her.
What a good product. Easy to use and I don't have to run around uncovering sprinkler heads anymore. My wife is happy, so I am happy. I'd recommend this product to any golfer that loves the sport. |
Satisfied

| Great rangefinder! It takes a little getting used to in terms of holding it steady enough to get an accurate reading, but that's to be expected. If you play alot of courses where the sprinkler heads either are marker inconsistently, or, just never seem to be where you hit the ball, then this rangefinder is for you. The slope feature is not to be discounted--it's a handy feature that will come in handy more than you think. As most courses I play have the GPS distance feautres located on the golf carts themselves, I won't fear seeing the "no carts on fairways today" signs quite as much as I did previously; I'll always have an accurate distance no matter where I am on the course. |

| This product was everything that I had hoped for and more. I used to play in many USGA events, but no longer. I love the slope feature. I would highly recomment this product. |
Excellent quality and easy to use.

I've played about a half dozen rounds with my new Bushnell Pro 1600 Slope and couldn't be happier! I wear glasses, but the adjustable eye shade and diopter adjustment make it a breeze to use. The pinseeker mode allows you to lock on to the pin almost instantly. It you just aim slightly to one side of the pin and then sweep across it, the 1600 locks right on to the pin distance and holds it. The view through the range finder is bright and clear, even with sunglasses on.
My home course has one par three built onto the side of the Blue Ridge, so it's a very steep angle from the tee boxes down to the green. The slope mode distance correction exactly matches my clubs, so I pick the club that matches the slope distance and it's right on.
All in all, I couldn't be happier with my choice.
One word of caution - if you play in tournaments that allow distance measuring equipment - DO NOT GET THE SLOPE MODEL! Get the 1600 Tour instead. The Slope model is illegal in tournament play. But if you're an avid weekend golfer like I am who doesn't play tournaments, the 1600 Slope with the pinseeker mode can't be beat.

Don't Buy Amazon Combination Offer
|
| Review Date: December 23, 2009 |
| Reviewer: H. Nie, Sugar Land, TX, US |
| I bought the combination offer of the rangerfinder and the case as advertised by Amazon and found out the rangerfinder had a case coming with it(identical). Now I have two cases. Also, in the combination offer, there is another type rangerfiner (sold by Beach Camera), later I found out they did not want sell it for the advertised price. Not for the combination prices, I would have not bought them on Amazon. Cheating is everywhere. Don't buy on Amazon! |
