Sports reviews of Bushnell Medalist Laser Rangefinder

Customer Review: Highly Recommended
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I debated between the different rangefinders. I also debated a lot between rangefinder and a Skycaddie or similar GPS. I am very happy with the Medalist. The pinseeker feature is awesome. You are never in doubt whether you have the correct reading. From 200 yards and in you can pick up a reading in a second and know you picked up the flag. From 200-250 it is a little tougher but still rather easy. I didn't want to be the annoying guy who was looking through and messing with the rangefinder all day. That's not a worry at all. After tinkering with it for a couple minutes you basically have it figured out. You get to your ball, pull out the rangefinder, have the yardage in a second and your done. Compared to a gps unit I am very glad I bought the rangefinder. My playing partner has a Skycaddie and we have played several times with both the skycaddie and rangefinder in the cart. 9 out of 10 shots I would much rather have the rangefinder. It's quicker and more accurate. Once and a while you get blocked by trees or a hidden pin, but usually you can just walk a few yards one way or another and get a quick reading. I also love the rangefinder for the driving range. You can shoot the different flags or signs and find out the true distances rather than just guessing. It's also nice just to use as binoculars. If you're not sure if you're on the green or made the fairway bunker, usually you can look through the medalist and find out. It's also very nice on doglegs, fairway bunkers, etc. to get a reading on a certain tree or bunker to figure out what to hit. Compared to other rangefinders, I was a little nervous about getting this compared to the higher zoom models. I think this is just fine. I'm sure the extra zoom would help a little on 200+ yard readings but the medalist is still great.

Description of Bushnell Medalist Laser Rangefinder

EVERY GOLFER WANTS SPIN, DISTANCE AND PINSEEKER. With its sleek horizontal profile the Medalist is about two things: Lower scores and PinSeeker technology. Quick and natural to the eye, the Medalist acquires flags tucked in the deepest corners of the green despite background clutter that befuddles lesser rangefinders. Wherever evil lurks anywhere on the course, the Medalist with PinSeeker provides you with the information you want, to make the shot you need.
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 250 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.

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.
