- Works great no more guesswork
- I was initially very skeptical of rangefinders after using a friends and not being able to easily acquire the target. Once I decided on this model and used it I haven't got one bad thing to say about it. Target acquisition is super fast and accurate, just point at the flagstick or target needing yardage feedback and it shoots it with the correct yardage immediately. Buy this unit with no doubts that you will have purchased the best rangefinder available. I have gotten yardages from the flag at over 280 yards with it so far and I'm sure it will go further than that once I try. It gives you total confidence that you are using the right club and you will soon know exactly how far you hit each club to the yard. No more guesswork.

- Bushnell 1500 is a great rangefinder alternative
- I considered various alternatives of rangefinders and am thrilled that I chose both this type and this model. It is easy to use, has great features and is very accurate. I primarily use just the distance feature, but for non-competitive rounds the effective distance feature taking into consideration upward or downward slope is very cool. I also like the carrying case which can be attached to a bag or pull cart and provides easy accessibility to the rangefinder. I just returned from a trip to Ireland where many of the courses have few if any distance markers. It was indespensible.

- Beware-this is not tournament legal
- The Pinseeker Tournament Edition is the yardage pro you want to purchase. This yardage pro has slope and is therefore not legal to use for tournament play. Unfortunately Amazon does not list this in the description so I had to return it and of course they charged me shipping to return it. When I ordered it I was given free shipping, but because I returned it Amazon then charged for shipping it to me. Because Amazon failed to describe this product fully I was charged twice for shipping. Beware of purchasing anything from Amazon--I will never shop from them again!!!!

- Does what they say it does
- This thing works exactly as advertised. I use it for golf, and it does a very good job of separating the flag from other background objects, even when wind or my over-caffeinated hands make it hard to get the target centered on the flag. Even works when there is no wind and the flag is hanging straight down. This is well worth the cost adder over cheaper ones that don't work nearly as well.

- "Dead-On" Distance
- I've tested the Bushnell Yardage Pro Golf Pinseeker 1500 Laser Rangefinder w/Slope on several courses and find the yardage detection to be "Dead-On". It's very light and easy to use. The 7x magnification makes it so easy to zero in on the target (pin, front & back of bunkers, front of green, far side of hazard, etc.). I always take 2 or 3 readings, to make sure of the distance. The slope is nice as it calculates the actual yardage, the degree of elevation and most helpful, the effective yardage. Now, all I have to think about is hitting the target!
