 Not a golf distance finder August 4, 2008
This item was returned for credit. It simply does not work outside of about 100 yards. Beyond 100 yards or so, when the flag was in front of any other target (i.e. trees, etc.) it would only register the farther away target. When only the flag was visible, it would not register the distance at all.

Using this for golf. Pretty decent. It's difficult to aim at the flag but if you're standing on higher ground it's easy to just aim at the hole. Very useful if you want to know how far to carry a bunker/water etc. There were some instances where I couldnt get a yardage reading from it, suspect it's the angle at which the fairway was slanting towards. Not easy to find the yard/meter switch.
Size-wise it's actually smaller than the picture might lead you to believe. Overall good product for the price range.

This product does not lock on to flags over 130 yards with any consistency. I would not recommend this item.

Basically, it works great! We use our rangefinder to judge the distance from our boat to the shore, other boats, and anything else around us. Typical distances are 20 to 200 yards. We bought the cheapest rangefinder we could find because we didn't need accuracy, didn't need long distance, and weren't sure it would be useful to us. Turns out we use it all the time and recommend it to all our sailing friends. We would buy the same unit again, but there are three things about it I would change. First, the unit is about 1/2" too long for the case that came with it -- it fits, but the case doesn't close all the way. Very annoying! Second, sailors tend to measure in feet or meters and this unit measures in yards. It's easy enough to multiply by three, but at the end of a long day when you are trying to figure the dinstances between a rocky point, a mooring bouy, and two other boats, it would be nice to avoid the math... Third, I would add a backlight to the display for use at twighlight and at night -- the unit makes the measurements, you just can't see the crosshairs to aim and can't read the distance until you look at a light.
