I can range the front and back edge of any hazard to see how far I need to carry.
If there's a hill in the fairway I want to target or fly over I can range it.
Finally, the greatest advantage to me over GPS is I can range anything. I often play with people who use the latest GPS equipment and there are times where they'll give me a range and then 10 seconds later say "wait, it's changing." GPS can give you front/middle/back ranges on a green, but the 1500 can give you range to the pin. GPS receivers are only as good as their signal and normally are no more accurate than +/- 5 yards. Given a clear line of sight, the 1500 is more accurate than a GPS hands down. There are definite advantages to having the 1500 w/slope over your standard GPS type of range finder. Mist/rain/fog also make it very difficult to get the correct range, the laser just can't make it to the target in those conditions. For example, if the pin is on an elevated greed and only the flag is visible, it is possible to accidentally get the range for the hill obscuring the pin. Secondly, it can be tough to correctly range targets that are slightly obscured. The first is it isn't legal for tournament play. There are a few drawbacks to using the 1500 w/slope. Get your Bushnell Elite 1500 rangefinder today Our prices cant be beat, no reason to shop around elsewhere, we do it for you and adjust our pricing based. It has a good amount of weight which helps keep it stable when in use. Some times I use it to locate drives before I even leave the tee box. Optics are coated and extremely clear, the 7x magnification is really useful for looking at targets above 150 yards. I've used it in rainy conditions and have yet to see any adverse effects. The outer case for the 1500 is solid and water resistant. Finding distances generally takes no longer than 5-10 seconds, definitely not something that interrupts play.īuild quality is top notch. It will give you two yardages, one for the straight line distance to the target, and another compensating for slope (effective shot distance). In order to find the distance to the pin you simply line up the pin (or target) in the center circle and press the button until the pinseeker icon is highlighted. Having used the 1500 w/slope for some time now I've found it is ultimately useful on the course. This ability alone has saved me strokes on the course because I know exactly how far my shots are going now. By using the slope function I can hit from the upper deck and reverse read the ranges to find my theoretical distance. The driving range I frequent is a multi story facility so the lower deck is better to simulate real yardage, but the upper deck allows you to see where your ball lands exactly. I initially bought the 1500 w/slope to find the distances each of my shots were carrying during practice. The 7x magnification matched with Bushnell's PinSeeker technology make range finding at any distance fast and extremely accurate. I've had the Bushnell Pinseeker 1500 w/slope for almost a year now and it's a definite buy for discerning golfers.
