Geared for close-range use, this mode acquires the distances of small targets and game without inadvertently measuring background target distances. When more than one object is acquired, the closer of the two objects is shown on the LCD display. .
Ignores the foreground, such as brush, boulders and tree branches, and provides distances on the LCD display to background objects only. .
Designed exclusively with the bottom of the cup in mind, this mode allows easy acquisition of the flag without inadvertently capturing background target distances. When more than one object is acquired, the closer of the two objects is shown on the LCD display. . Laser Rangefinder Tech Talk A laser rangefinder is a distance-measuring instrument that uses laser technology to calculate the distance to targeted objects. Accuracy is +/- 1 yard, and the distance is displayed instantaneously on a built-in, through-the-lens Liquid Crystal Display. How a Laser Rangefinder Works Bushnell's Yardage Pro rangefinders use an invisible, eye-safe Class 1 Laser beam (as classified by the FDA) which is 'bounced' off distant objects with the press of a button. Then, the rangefinder's high-speed digital clock measures the time it took for a laser beam to reach a target and return to the unit. Next, using advanced digital electronics, the rangefinder instantly calculates the distance within +/- 1 yard and shows the range in either yards or meters on a through-the-lens LCD Display. The entire process is so fast that less than a second elapses between the time you press the button to generate a laser beam to the time the exact range to your target is displayed. Reflectivity of Target Types Because rangefinders 'bounce' a laser beam off the target in order to take a measurement, their range is partially determined by the reflectivity of the target. In other words, hard or 'reflective' targets -- like a rock cliff or semi-truck -- can be measured at greater distances than soft surface targets, like a deer. Ranges for moderately reflective targets, like trees, fall somewhere in the middle. Most experienced hunters will use their rangefinder to frequently estimate ranges to near and distant landmarks before they actually encounter a game animal. By 'pre-measuring' ranges to spots where a trophy is likely to appear, they can concentrate on making an accurate shot when the moment of truth arrives. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Super great productWhat a great product. If you like golf you will really enjoy this rangefinder. I have used it for over a month and I don't see myself going out to play without it. Rating: - Great ProductIt works as advertised and is fairly easy to use. Now I can concentrate on my swing and not have my mind wondering if I figure out the distance correctly or not. With this confidence, I already shaved off a few strokes. When I first got it, I was worried about the size being troublesome to carry around when golfing, it would be nice if they could come up with a smaller package while retaining all the features, but in the end, I discover by strapping it around the top of my golf bag where it doesn't interferer with the pockets, it is actually quite easy to remove and store using the magnetic flip top. Rating: - Top notch tool!This range finder is very accurate. It gives a new degree of confidence that I did not have with a Sky Caddie. Rating: - greatnesshave used skycaddie, gpsgolfguru, and other range finders. I use it for golf as well as hunting and it is greatness Rating: - Big help!I wasn't too sure about whether to buy a GPS or a laser rangefinder. Both have pros and cons, but I'm glad I chose to go with the Bushnell Yardage Pro Pinseeker 1500 Slope Edition. I have a buddy that has a Sky Caddie GPS and it seems to work fine. However, often the battery runs down and about half way through the round, we're out of luck. When we first used my Bushnell, he was asking me for precise measurements. It's nice to know exactly what club I should pull. It does take a little getting use to though. You have to make sure your hand is steady and that you're hitting the target you're shooting. Other than that, which really isn't a big deal, it's great! I look forward to many happy rounds with my personal caddie. Browse for similar items by category:
