Makes the game a lot easier January 17, 2007
The only trouble with this product is that it is very hard to pick up the flag from any distance. You generally have to use a trap (or a person on the green) to get distance to the flag. Otherwise, we've found this a very useful and easy to use tool.

Excellent. Upgraded from Yardage Pro 400. This one is so small. Much more convenient than the 400. This one just clips on your bag. Works better as well. Even picks up those flags that are just hanging there on a overcast, windless day. The scan feature is nice to verify that you are zoning in on the proper target.

After 2 or 3 tries, I usually get the distance to the flag. However, it often picks up larger items behind the flagstick. I like the fact that I can measure to other items other than the flag (such as bunkers and water hazards.)

I've used this since 2001 and extensively in 2006 now that it's USGA legal. Not sure why others have having trouble holding this steady. Anything <200 yards I have no problem hitting the flag (you don't aim at the stick, you aim at the flag). Excellent for getting distances to bunkers, trees, and other hazards.
200 and over it is difficult for me to hit the flag, but all you have to do is wait for someone to pull or reinsert the pin, and you beam it off the player.
Inside 150 I've never had a problem getting the distance. I have learned to first laser an object behind the pin (such as a tree), then move up to the pin so I know for sure that I'm getting the flagstick and not the tree in the background.
My dad has the "Pinseeker" model and it IS quicker and easier to beam off a small object, but it's also a lot more expensive... and it's larger.
Great idea but not effective -- too difficult to hold steady October 7, 2006

I bought the Bushnell Yardage Pro Tour Laser Rangefinder despite warnings about the inability to hold it steady enough. I have no tremor; neither do I have any problems with steadiness; however, I found it practically impossible to hold the laser crosshairs on the flagstick from 60-100 yards away without getting a multitude of readings, depending upon what reflection it relied upon. I found myself with a multiple choice reading, and even the one closest to my estimate was doubtful. Even steadying the binoculars on the cart edge didn't really help much.
I'd really love to find something that was quick, easy to use, and reliable. My short iron and wedge shots are my most reliable means to birdie and par!
