Bushnell Yardage Pro Scout Laser Rangefinder (Camouflage)

You need to know how far your target is, plain and simple.

The Bushnell Yardage Pro Scout Laser does just that in a compact, water resistant, lightweight package. This has a matte dark green rubberized finish which is weather resistant.

The Yardage Pro Scout comes with a compact nylon case that can clip to the belt or clip from the bag. There is a lanyard to hang it off of your neck (I wouldn't advise it for golf but useful for hunting). A cleaning cloth for the lens is included.

Operation is simple. Push the top button quickly for measuring distances or hold it down to 'scan' the field. The front button toggles between yards and meters - and it toggles between standard and >150 yard measurements to avoid closer objects. The unit stays on for 6 seconds and acquisition of distances is relatively quick. Obviously, use is limited by the steadiness of your hand with farther, smaller objects.

With 6X magnification, you get more than enough range for common targets. If you're looking for an economical way to improve your game or speed up play by spending less time in the hazards, then this is for you.

Its advantage over a GPS is that you can use it off of the course and you can even measure distances at the driving range instantly. If you want to browse the some of the GPS systems, here they are:

However, with rangefinders there are no monthly fees to pay (such as in a Golf GPS) and accurate to 1 yard. You can look to other models but this one really does the job!

This unit has the best combination of features, price, ease of use and reputation of a leader in laser rangefinder technology. Highly recommend.

I THINK THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT! I USE IT FOR ARCHERY HUNTING, IT SO SMALL IT CAN EASILY FIT IN YOUR PANTS POCKET FOR EASY ACCESS. THERE ARE ONLY 2 BUTTONS TO OPERATE ON THIS MODEL WHICH MAKES IT VERY EASY TO USE IN THE FIELD. I WOULD REC AMEND THIS TO ANY HUNTER.
