| A great invention! |
What club to use? Often it is difficult to determine the distance to the pin due to many variables such as course markings (or lack thereof), optical illusions, etc. Now I just take a look with this rangefinder and all the guesswork is gone. It is very easy to use and seems to be very accurate. I love this thing! |

I recently puchased the Bushnell Pinseeker 1500 to replace my Leica Rangefinder. This is my third rangefinder and definitely the best one. It is so much easier to lock onto the flag with this upgraded rangefinder. The pinseeker locks in quickly and accurately. I used to take 3 readings to be sure I had the flag and not the background, but that's no longer necessary. The slope calculator is great too. I am a roaming golfer who rarely plays the same course twice in a season. This tool really helps me select the right club when I play from differing elevations.
This is a great supplement to my Skycaddie SG5 GPS. The GPS is fast and works great when I can't see the green, but the laser is still more accurate and lets you pick out the range to various targets like traps, lakes and woods which helps me keep from hitting into danger on courses I don't know well. I'm glad I've got it on my bag. |

My Husband loves this thing. I wish I knew about it last year or the year before that or the year before that for HIS BIRTHDAY/CHRISTMAS PRESENT. If I had known what it was and what it did, and if it had been a gift... I would still be showered with much lavish attention, but saddly, I hadn't a clue...so speak up guys and tell her what you really want. He loves the thing. Who knew? |

| Like having a pro caddie on your bag!!!! |
The first time I saw this used was during a friendly round with a tour player. I couldn't believe how inaccurate my distances were when using the sprinkler heads. My handicap has dropped from a 10 to an 8 since purchasing the 1500 with slope. Standing over a shot with confidence in the club you are hitting makes all the difference. Downhill shots using the slope feature has taken the guessing out of club selection. It also saves you the time walking around and pacing off distances from the markers. My friends will not hit a shot without getting a distance from the rangefinder. |

| No more guessing - amazingly accurate! |
This is the most useful golf tool you can buy. It is dead-on accurate for distance and adjusts distance to account for slope up or down. What club do you hit when you know its 150 yards up hill? This little device won't tell you what club to hit, but it will tell you that the 150 yards is going to play like 165 yards (slope adjusted). Now all we need is a device that measures distance, slope and WIND speed! |
