1. TOP PICK: Shot Scope PRO L1 Laser Rangefinder

SPECIFICATIONS

⛳️ The Shot Scope PRO L1 Laser Rangefinder is a premium product, measuring up to 875 yards with continuous scan mode, advanced Target-Lock technology, and a durable, water-resistant body

⛳️ Provides fast measurement with 1-yard accuracy, together with Target-Lock technology to accurately measure overlapping subjects, perfect for measuring golf flags, hazards, and wooded areas (Yards or Meters)

⛳️ Crystal clear optics with the choice of a red or black display. The lens display shows battery power, mode, slope, and distances clearly

⛳️ Durable construction, hard carry case for protection, CR2A battery, cleaning cloth, quick start guide, and 1-year warranty

WHAT WE THINK:

With its quick-fire speed and a wide range of capabilities, the Shot Scope PRO L1 is a high-end laser with a lower price tag that offers many of the same features as higher-end versions at a lower price. There is a slew of features packed into the compact design of this rapid-fire laser. It is readable in all light and weather circumstances thanks to the PRO L1's configurable red/black Optics display and Precision Clear Lens, independent of the surrounding environment. It is featured in the rangefinder's Target-Lock Vibration characteristic to ensure that you can lock on to the target with confidence. It is also possible to turn off Adaptive Slope Technology, which provides elevation changes on the golf course with slope-adjusted distances, to comply with tournament regulations.

WHAT CUSTOMERS THINK:

“Less than half the price of the better-known brands and yet does everything they do. Well established company with a proven track record in laser products.”

“I've played a few times with the recipient and like with most range finders, there is a learning curve. That said, in comparison to my Nikon unit, this is just as accurate and the on-screen display with the colours, etc is a nice added bonus.

If I could do it again, I'd definitely choose a rangefinder with a pin lock vibration like this one.

Bought as a flash deal, but I think it's worth the regular price.”

“Purchased this product and have used on the course 3 times as of now. Numbers were on point, slope function was fairly fast, lock on time is about a half second or two longer then top competitors however this product is half the price. Switching between red and black was also nice to use depending on the course and weather. Overall no complaints, will update mid-way through the season”

WHAT CUSTOMERS THINK:

“This is a pretty amazing package for an incredible price. The distances have been spot on. The tracking has been almost flawless with very few missed shots.

A couple of minor gripes would be battery life and round editing from the mobile app. I doubt the battery would make it through two long rounds. Editing rounds from the mobile app isn't terrible, but the online dashboard blows the app away. Neither issue warrants dropping a star, though.

I previously used the Approach S60 and decided to give this a try, and am so happy I did.

I'll be sticking with the V3 until the V4 releases. Great job Shot Scope!!!”

“I am very pleased with the shot scope v3. I am still in the learning phase and have a few issues with the method of correcting a round after the fact. The biggest issue has been forgetting to enter the putt on each hole. I am improving (this is a process failure on my part.)

I am particularly pleased to see my club performance statistics although I am very humbled by the fact that I do NOT hit as far as I believed!

This is a very good product and I believe it is helping me.”

WHAT CUSTOMERS THINK:

“I received the shot scope V2 from my wife for Christmas. I used it a couple days later and it worked great. I had a terrible day and it very successfully kept up with chasing my ball around the course. I had to fix one shot where the GPS location was off for the tee off (Easily done using my laptop online). I also had to add one shot for a penalty that I forgot to mark using the watch during play. It did a great job documenting my shots including my putts. The pin collect feature worked awesome and was very easy to use.”
