Customer Review: Basic Bushnell laser rangefinder perfect for bowhunting
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I'm not sure any laser rangefinder would be effective at long ranges, but this one at least is absolutely perfect at close ones. It even works in dim light.Customer Review: range finder bushnell

Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I have been playing golf for 50 yrs. on public (and some private, such as Pebble Beach) courses. Your buyer talked about the "Rules of Golf." First, they have so many rules--most of them stupid-- that the AVERAGE golfer can't possibly follow them. On a crowded public course do you really think you (or ANYONE) can take a ball back and hit another drive. There will already be at least one group "behind" you that you will be hitting into, and one on the tee wondering if you are insane to come back and slow down their game. The "Rules" are stupid enough (ask Craig Statler)for the pro players, but ARE SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR AN AVERAGE PLAYER ON A PUBLIC COURSE. By all means use a range finder if it will help your game. This is especially true if you travel and get a tee time on a course you have never seen before. HOW FAR IS IT TO THE DOG LEG? Don't know. For shame. Get out your range finder and find out what you need to hit. I have played many times where the slightest slow down will get a ball hit into you. I've cured that often if early in the round by taking a 7 iron and hitting the ball horizontally into the woods or water. It is an excellent training device in this era of greedy, uncaring pigs.Customer Review: Steady as you are Rangefinder
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I bought the rangefinder to measure out driving range's flag distances. Some of the distance are questionable because when I shoot a flag, it gives out 20 yards more then what it posted at the driving range. When shooting at a yardage sign (which is a bigger target) the yardage is similar to the posted yardage (maybe 1-3 yards difference). Also at night, it's very hard or impossible to get a reading unless the object you're shooting is white.
Con: Flimsy, almost toy type construction. Not so good in dim lighting. Need to have a big target and steady hands to operate it correctly. May need to measure different targets to ensure you're getting the correct distance.
Pro: Light weight if you're carrying it on your waist belt and walking 18 holes. No annual membership to pay for. Great value for the price. Good tool for a beginner golfer to practice his yardage.
Customer Review: not for golf

I decided I wanted a range finder when I played golf with my father-in-law. He had the Bushnell Yardage Pro 1000 and it worked great. Just point, shoot, and the yardage to the hole was returned promptly every time.I was really excited when I first got this range finder ...until I got it on the golf course. It is much smaller than the YP1000, but the Sport model's superiority ends there. When you are inside 150 yards, it can range on a flag fine. Any farther than this and it becomes more trouble to use than it's worth. You have to hold it very steady and it takes several seconds for the range to register (if it is going to register at all).
This range finder may work fine for hunting, but if you are going to use it for golf then spend the extra money and get a better model. I am currently looking at the Bushnell Yardage Pro Tour XL 20-2025, but I haven't tried it out yet.
