Purchased one after demonstration at a pro shop. Found it to be absolutely useless during a round at another course. Turns out that all of the flags were changed to reflective white for the demo. On a real course, cannot give yardage to a flag beyond 100-125 yards if the color of the flag is not white. Very weak laser mechanism, frequently cannot give distances to bunkers. Good for yardages to trees if you aim 10-20' feet up at the foliage, not the trunks. Returned this unit and compared the Bushnell Yardage Pro Tour and Pinseeker 1500 w&w/0 slope. Yardage Pro Tour is also useless for golf. Either version of the Pinseeker 1500 is terrific and what a rangefinder should be. Purchased Pinseeker 1500 w/slope. Do not scrimp, save your money for a Pinseeker 1500 and you will be happy. Might be OK for hunting, but NOT FOR GOLFERS!
