 Nikon Laser Rangefinder Very Good January 12, 2008
I've used it several times now and it works very well. It takes some practice to be able to hold it steady and scan the pin while reading the numbers. One problem that is inherant to all laser rangefinders is when you are trying to read distance to a pin that has bushes or trees or any other object fairly close to the back of the green. I found it was easier to hold steady while leaning my elbows on the steering wheel of the golf cart. I do wish there was some sort of eye cup that you could attach to the viewer so that you could put it right up to your eye. One of the problems with holding it steady is that you have to hold it just a little bit away from your eye in order to see anything.
It works just as well as the Bushnell and is less than half the size. I replaced the long lanyard that comes with it for a much shorter wrist strap. That makes it very easy to pull out of the snug case that comes with it.
 It's Great! December 30, 2007
I thought about getting a rangefinder for a year, and finally made the jump. After using this one for 4 rounds of golf, I don't know how I got along without one! My friend has a Bushnell, but I really like this Nikon because of the smaller size, which makes it easier to store in my golf bag.
Accuracy and ease of use are excellent. Price was reasonable.
Good product. Great price. December 30, 2007
I purchased this golf rangefinder for my husband. He tried it by focusing on various objects in the back yard (a little too much snow here for golfing just now) and was pleased at how easy it was to use. Nikon has always had very nice, bright optics and this product is no exception. We're both very pleased.
Update August 2008: We've now used this a season on the golf course and find that it's accurate and handy. It can be tricky to hold still enough to line up on a flagstick, but practice helps.
Nikon Laser Caddy Rangefinder 500G December 29, 2007
SMALL. ESPECIALLY HANDY FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO WALK. EASY TO USE. CARRY CASE ON BELT. ACCURATE ( 1 T0 2 YARDS DIFFERENCE AT MOST WHEN COMPARING WITH CART GPS. THINK RANGEFINDER IS MORE ACCURATE BECAUSE CAN STAND NEXT TO OR OVER BALL). EASILY RANGES DISTANCE FROM 20O YDS OR MORE. USE ON SCAN MODE TO DEAL WITH SHAKY HANDS. USED AT LEAST HALF DOZEN TIMES. NO SIGN OF BATTERY DRAIN. VERY PLEASED SO FAR. WAS ABLE TO GET EXTRA BATTERIES AT AMAZON FOR GOOD PRICE AS WELL.
He loved it! December 28, 2007
This was the item my boyfriend wanted for Christmas. He loved it. It was exactly what he wanted and I now know how far all of my neighbors live from my home. :)
