Any of you have a preferred range finder?

You can spend almost any amount of money on a rangefinder but I wouldn't. I have an old and not expensive Bushnell and every time I have checked it at a measured distance it has been spot on. Go look at some and buy whatever you like but I think they are all good enough for hunting, dog training, etc.

JMHO, Good Luck. Alan

Bushnell, if you get the better golf ones that measure slope they are deadly accurate to about 400 yds. If money were no object then it would be a set of Leica binos/rangefinders

I have an inexpensive Bushnell and use it more for laughs then anything else, after years of golf I can guestimate yardages inside of 150 yds within 10yds..probably even better since I had cataract surgery

I just ordered a Bushnell 550 from Cabelas on-line on sale for $98. It is the one in the gift box. I guess they had a bunch left over from Christmas. They are selling the same model in their stores, without the gift box, for $179. Go figure.....

Use a Bushnell one that is made for golf with the slope and pin seeker technology. I also use it for bow/rifle hunting too. Primarily bought for golf but has held up great for 5 years and gets a lot of use and abuse in and out of the golf cart cubby hole. Battery life is good and locks onto target great.

Swampcollielover: I received mine yesterday and used it today in a group training session. It performed as expected, and it was nice to be able to share with the group exactly how long each mark was. Glad I was able to help out a fellow Missourian. I was born and raised in Liberty, MO, just north of KC.
