Which Slope range finder is good enough for me?

[chillr710]

What am I going to get out of the pro thats worth the extra money ?

 

I use a golf buddy platinum GPS. So thats good for the map of the hole and front edge, centre rear distances...

 

All I want a range finder for, is to really work out on the range exactly what my distances are with each club. because I really dont have much of an idea. I know roughly but not well enough.

and obviously on course, for a spot on read to the spin etc.

 

I dont think I want to spend as much at the new Pro1m. But dont want junk either.

 

Thoughts? Cheers!

I have a bushnell scout 1000 arc (for hunting, but will tell the distances needed) that I purchased off here @ the BST forum for the exact same reasons as you described above & the occasional use on a golf round on a new course (I prefer using gps). The last distance digit is beginning to fail, but all else is ok. If interested, I'm willing to sell it to you, AS IS, at low cost, as I no longer need it (& to fund for a future hybrid). This way you try out a rangefinder and figure if it's for you before "plunking down" more than $250 on one. So, pm if interested.

P.S. - I have the original package box, the case, the instructions and battery for the Scout 1000.

I swear by anything bushnell makes, I picked up a tour V2 and its the best investment i ever made. If you play a lot of different courses or travel its great when playing a course for the first time or that you havent played much. The slope eddition will configure yardages including elevation but its not competition legal (not sure if that matters to you or not)
