very accurate, just a little bulky July 30, 2008 Used this about 7 times on a course. This was to replace the garmin golflogic (last years model) which was not accurate enough.
Pro's -very accurate, high quality optics -waterproof design -more versatile compared to the gps units (able to find distances from whatever object you wish)
Cons: -more bulky. This fits in a large pocket, but barely -does not have a belt clip design. It would be nice to be able to just clip this directly to your belt, with a similar design to the garmin golflogic which has a brilliant belt clip design
Bottom line, this is must better than the garmin gps unit.
Bushnell Pinseeker July 19, 2008 Very fine product. Easy to use and accurate. I have a little problem with ranging other than the pins. Definitely speeds up play and adds confidence to my swing because I know the distance I need.
Bushnell fulfills promise July 14, 2008 Golfers depend on accurate yardage to determine both club and shot shape. This Bushnell 1500 range finder with slope gives you fast and accurate information. I've used this at my home club and determined that the yardage markers and GAM markers are good indicators of "the middle of the green" but can be off as much as 10 -15 yards depending on the flag location.
I like the slope indicator and found that what I would estimate as a full club or more is often only a half club. The use of the rangefinder has improved my GIR with first use. This is easy and fast to use once you get used to it. It is especially fast if your cart partner assists with the rangefinding as you prepare for the shot.
Vast improvement over original model June 23, 2008 I purchased this product due to pinseeker feature when my previous Bushnell rangefinder LED display faded after many years of use. The new pinseeker feature makes this rangefinder a vast improvement over the original in terms of locking onto the yardage to the pin. I was amazed and very impressed with this feature. The 7x reticle also make it much easier to lock onto the pin (or any other object on the course), but it does make holding it steady more of a challenge when ranging distances over 175 yards.
In comparison to the Sky Caddie product which provides distance to front, back and middle of green and some other features on the hole. The rangefinder provides exact distance to the pin; to the pin placement on any particular day. One can also range to the back and front of the green; the obvious disadvantage of a rangefinder is that its a line-of-sight device. Another use my rangefinder has is off the tee; to scope the yardages where there is trouble.
I am very satisfied with my purchase.
Sorry to Disappoint June 22, 2008 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
Sorry to disappoint new potential buyers for this item, but after agonizing for many days on whether to spend the $338 for the Pinseeker 1500, I took all the good reviews to heart and dialed in my "Place Order." Only then did I find out that there would be $40 added for shipping. After calling Beach Camera for clarification, I was told that they do not even have the 1500 in stock. Amazon, get your act in order!
