Bushnell Pinseeker Series Rangefinders:
Medalist Edition
Compact in size but loaded with powerful rangefinding features, the Bushnell Medalist sets a new standard in a complete rangefinder package. Like its predecessor — the PinSeeker 1500 — the Medalist is equipped with PinSeeker technology to combine pinpoint accuracy and consistency enabling you to range up to 300 yards (±1 yard) to the flag without the use of reflectors.
Designed exclusively with the bottom of the cup in mind, Bushnell's Pinseeker 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 screen.
Powered by a 9-volt battery, the lightweight Medalist boasts a 4x magnification and features a rubber armoring, making it easy to grip. It also comes with a premium carrying case. Weighing just 9 ounces, the Medalist measures 1.7 x 4.5 x 3.8 inches in size and is ready to be used right out-of-the-box, allowing it to be played at 100 percent of the courses around the world. The Medalist is legal for tournament play and for posting of scores for handicap purposes. Other features include distance readings in both yards and meters and standard SCAN mode.
Targeting Modes
- SCAN: Allows you to pan across the landscape while viewing a continuously updated LCD display of the distances between you and the targets you scan.
- Rain: Compensates for precipitation to guarantee an accurate distance measurement through rain or snow.
- Reflector: Increases the maximum measurement range for most highly reflective objects.

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.

- Seems to work very well...
- I have used the Medalist for five rounds now, and I'm very happy with the results. On the first outing I was having the same difficulty with stability that others have reported. I found it a bit inconvienient to have to rely on bracing against the cart, especially since there were cart-path-only restrictions in place. Being an advanced amature photographer, I've… More reviews

- So far so good
- OK,OK,OK......So I just got it and have a tee time later today. Yes I've read all about it from the manufacture, golf players, and pro's before I bought it. No, I can't tell you how it works on the course yet, but I can tell you the Honda down the street is a full 7 iron. The neighbors' boat is a three quarter 56 degree… More reviews
- Avoid the medalist
- Are rangefinders a great thing for golf? Yes, they are. Is this the rangefinder you want? NO. I had an old bushnell that I loved- right up until someone stole it from my cart. I could not find a used one like it, so I opted to purchase a medalist, from someone on e-bay. I thought I'd spend the extra money to get the "pin-seeker" technology. First,… More reviews
- First outing discount...
- A number of my golfing buddies own and use Golf GPS units. I tried them, but depending on the course you're playing, there was a question as to making the correct interpretation. So I leaned toward the laser range finder. Just about that time Bushnell came out with the Medalist with "Pin Seeker" technology. I bought it.
