 Very Satisfied With This Product May 22, 2008

The Bushnell Yardage Pro Golf Pinseeker 1500 Laser Rangfinder is easy to use and very accurate. I really like the pin mode indicator that lets you know when you have a lock onto the pin without picking up trees or other objects in the background. It provides the yardage information very quickly and doesn't slow down play. Of course the Bushnell optics are second to none and the adjustable eyepiece is another handy feature.
The only minor complaint I have is the case that comes with it. It's too bulky and awkward to handle and stow away. Don't know if it will make you a better golfer, but if you are in the market for a reliable, accurate rangefinder, I highly recommend the Bushnell Pro Golf Pinseeker 1500.
Great device, complementary to pin sheet and/or GPS May 10, 2008

This is a great device that works exactly as advertised _but_ it does not replace a pin sheet and/or GPS. If you're a 18 handicapper it is all you need. But if you're a low handicapper the pin is not always what you want to know, and it isn't necessarily that good for telling you the front and back of the green/ridges on greens, etc. For that reason I use it in conjunction with a GPS which tells me front/rear of green yardages. The GPS is not as good for pin yardages because I am telling it where the pin is, and I might be off in that regard.
If I had to have only one device, I would go wtih GPS. Smart golf is about playing to the right parts of the greens, and a basic knowledge of where the pin is enough to know where that is. GPS is better at telling me the yardage to that "smart" location. But when there is a total "green light" flag, it is great to have that perfect accuracy that the laser gives you.
Its also not useful if you're in the wrong fairway and have trees to carry, which makes having GPS a must as well.
A great invention! May 3, 2008
What club to use? Often it is difficult to determine the distance to the pin due to many variables such as course markings (or lack thereof), optical illusions, etc. Now I just take a look with this rangefinder and all the guesswork is gone. It is very easy to use and seems to be very accurate. I love this thing!
A Good Friend on the Links April 12, 2008
I recently puchased the Bushnell Pinseeker 1500 to replace my Leica Rangefinder. This is my third rangefinder and definitely the best one. It is so much easier to lock onto the flag with this upgraded rangefinder. The pinseeker locks in quickly and accurately. I used to take 3 readings to be sure I had the flag and not the background, but that's no longer necessary. The slope calculator is great too. I am a roaming golfer who rarely plays the same course twice in a season. This tool really helps me select the right club when I play from differing elevations.
This is a great supplement to my Skycaddie SG5 GPS. The GPS is fast and works great when I can't see the green, but the laser is still more accurate and lets you pick out the range to various targets like traps, lakes and woods which helps me keep from hitting into danger on courses I don't know well. I'm glad I've got it on my bag.

This tool will help elevate your game as it will remove all doubt about your exact yardage. It's taken my short iron game to a new level. It works great on courses that you're not familiar with especially when it involves carries over bunkers, ravine, water etc. Well worth the money spent. I have 0 regrets.
