Great rangefinderApril 5, 2010 Wayhomer(Midwest) I bought this for shooting and this is the first rangefinder I have ever had any experience with and I have been very happy. It is a very simple setup. The button turns on the reticle and you just point it and push the button again and it displays the yards. After a short time it shuts back off. Doesn't get much simpler than that. I have read reviews where some people are unhappy because thiers only reads in meter instead of yards. There is a micro switch under the cover (kinda hidden) that switches between yards and meters. Overall, a great purchase.
Neat Gadget But Not for GolfOctober 29, 2001 Jeffery A Raich(McKinney, TX United States) 96 out of 100 found this review helpful
Originally picked this up to use on the golf course, but afterwards found out that even Bushnell says this is not the unit for golfers. It's small, lightweight and accurate, but does not have a scan feature, meaning the distance measurement does not change as you move the sight from one object to the next. You must "shoot" the object, pick a another and shoot it. I have kept it as it will be great for dear season, but aim higher in the Bushnell line for use on the golf course.
Great for anchoring your sailboatJune 15, 2007 Greg Hadaller(Cape Canaveral, Florida USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Basically, it works great! We use our rangefinder to judge the distance from our boat to the shore, other boats, and anything else around us. Typical distances are 20 to 200 yards. We bought the cheapest rangefinder we could find because we didn't need accuracy, didn't need long distance, and weren't sure it would be useful to us. Turns out we use it all the time and recommend it to all our sailing friends. We would buy the same unit again, but there are three things about it I would change. First, the unit is about 1/2" too long for the case that came with it -- it fits, but the case doesn't close all the way. Very annoying! Second, sailors tend to measure in feet or meters and this unit measures in yards. It's easy enough to multiply by three, but at the end of a long day when you are trying to figure the dinstances between a rocky point, a mooring bouy, and two other boats, it would be nice to avoid the math... Third, I would add a backlight to the display for use at twighlight and at night -- the unit makes the measurements, you just can't see the crosshairs to aim and can't read the distance until you look at a light.
Basic Bushnell laser rangefinder perfect for bowhuntingMay 4, 2007 J. Christensen(Georgia, USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I'm not sure any laser rangefinder would be effective at long ranges, but this one at least is absolutely perfect at close ones. It even works in dim light.
Bushnell Yardage Pro Sport 450May 13, 2008 Lim Shell Fer(Malaysia) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Using this for golf. Pretty decent. It's difficult to aim at the flag but if you're standing on higher ground it's easy to just aim at the hole. Very useful if you want to know how far to carry a bunker/water etc. There were some instances where I couldnt get a yardage reading from it, suspect it's the angle at which the fairway was slanting towards. Not easy to find the yard/meter switch.
Size-wise it's actually smaller than the picture might lead you to believe. Overall good product for the price range.
