 Bushnel Pinseeker 1500 Rangefinder w/ January 10, 2007
Rickshaw (Ohio)
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought this rangefinder to take to Myrtle Beach for a golf outing. Since we play a different course every day, I hoped it would give me true yardages on a course I hadn't played before. It out performed my expectations. Every golfer knows that the yardages on the course are to the center of the green. But some greens are 1 to 2 club lengths more. This rangefinder gave perfect yardages for me.
This rangefinder has three modes of operation. You can use it for hunting with the first mode, which just gives you yardage to any target you aim at. The second mode is the pin seeker mode for golf. You aim at the flag and press the button and it gives you the yardage to the flag. The third mode is the pin seeker w/slope mode for golf. You also aim at the flag and it gives you the distance to the pin plus or minus the slope to the green(this mode is illegal for USGA tournaments).
It was very helpful off the tee. You could aim it at a fairway bunker or hazard from the tee and you could get a yardage that would let you know whether you could carry it.
I found it very easy to operate and a great product.

I love my rangefinder! I've had it since Oct.2006 and forgot it at home only once.
I've trusted my Pinseeker over tee box yardage markers, a myriad of GPS in-cart units, sprinker heads and the usual variety of yardage to the center of the green course markers 200, 150, 100. I believe what it tells me and it has been highly accurate. I'm reluctant to share the yardage info with my fellow players unless asked, to avoid chatty debates and responsibility for their errant shots.(you'd be surprised...)
A few things to be aware are, the flags must be clearly visable of distant out of focus shrub branches that can interfere with the laser sensor, low light overcast conditions can be difficult to accurately measure distance and lastly, if you've heavily consumed too much COFFEE or too many martinis the night before, shakiness will prevail. You may want to add a tripod to your bag. % )

The Pinseeker Tournament Edition is the yardage pro you want to purchase. This yardage pro has slope and is therefore not legal to use for tournament play. Unfortunately Amazon does not list this in the description so I had to return it and of course they charged me shipping to return it. When I ordered it I was given free shipping, but because I returned it Amazon then charged for shipping it to me. Because Amazon failed to describe this product fully I was charged twice for shipping. Beware of purchasing anything from Amazon--I will never shop from them again!!!!

I was initially very skeptical of rangefinders after using a friends and not being able to easily acquire the target. Once I decided on this model and used it I haven't got one bad thing to say about it. Target acquisition is super fast and accurate, just point at the flagstick or target needing yardage feedback and it shoots it with the correct yardage immediately. Buy this unit with no doubts that you will have purchased the best rangefinder available. I have gotten yardages from the flag at over 280 yards with it so far and I'm sure it will go further than that once I try. It gives you total confidence that you are using the right club and you will soon know exactly how far you hit each club to the yard. No more guesswork.
"Dead-On" Distance August 25, 2006

I've tested the Bushnell Yardage Pro Golf Pinseeker 1500 Laser Rangefinder w/Slope on several courses and find the yardage detection to be "Dead-On". It's very light and easy to use. The 7x magnification makes it so easy to zero in on the target (pin, front & back of bunkers, front of green, far side of hazard, etc.). I always take 2 or 3 readings, to make sure of the distance. The slope is nice as it calculates the actual yardage, the degree of elevation and most helpful, the effective yardage. Now, all I have to think about is hitting the target!
