Garmin Z80 problems

Invisible-z · October 1, 2018

The range finder shuts down occasionally, anyone have this problem?

Also, the laser doesn't seem to catch the pin distance correctly....

80% of the time its the same as my bushnell but 20% of the time its off...

I have not had the distance problem (unless I hit the trees behind the hole) but I had the issue during my first round where it shut off 3 times. I updated the software to the latest version and all I had to do is press the range button to wake it up a couple times the last round of golf I played. However it woke up quickly.

Yes, same problems... however if it just goes to sleep it wakes up quickly. But if I don't use it for a couple holes it has completely shutdown on me and needed to go through the complete bootup. I also find that the flag finder is not the greatest, but a quick glance at the green front/back distances let's me know if I didn't get the flag accurately.
