How a Laser Rangefinder Works
Bushnell's Yardage Pro rangefinders use an invisible, eye-safe Class 1 Laser beam (as classified by the FDA) which is "bounced" off distant objects with the press of a button. Then, the rangefinder's high-speed digital clock measures the time it took for a laser beam to reach a target and return to the unit. Next, using advanced digital electronics, the rangefinder instantly calculates the distance within 1 yard and shows the range in either yards or meters on a through-the-lens LCD Display. The entire process is so fast that less than a second elapses between the time you press the button to generate a laser beam to the time the exact range to your target is displayed.

 I love this August 9, 2010
EJ (Sacramento, CA)
Wear the case on my belt, back right hip, most other places get in the way. That's the only downside.
Easy for me to scope pins, but love to see how far out are groups ahead, how much to carry a bunker lip, trees on the edge of the fairway, etc.
I verified the accuracy on a football field, right on the button. I love it for layups, where to drive it on a dogleg...

I love the unit but I need to send it back. I went through 2 batteries in two months and used it for 12 rounds and the battery died twice. Something is draining the batteries. Otherwise the unit is great. Might have got a bad one.

the infomercial makes it look like a breeze to use, but it is not. to begin with, a flag that is far away from you looks small in the eyepiece. if the wind is blowing, it is even harder to get it in the little circle for a measurement. plus, if you are not leaning against something solid you will not be able to keep the circle from moving around. it is like trying to shoot a bullseye with a scoped rifle at 250 or more yards while standing without any support for the rifle. your target moves around in the scope. the flag does the same thing in the v2. it works very well on large targets like a tree trunk, a building, or a person. a good way to use it is to take a reading on a golfer in the group ahead of you as he removes the pin or puts the pin back in the hole. but if the green ahead of you is empty, you dont know if the measurement is to the pin or the tree in line with it behind the green or a hill behind the green. like the infomercial says, golf is a game of inches on the tour, but i dont play on the tour. the gps devices available now are almost as accurate. if the measurement is off by one or two yards, it isnt the end of the world for me. i turn my gps on at the beginning of the round, attach it to my bag, and dont have to be messing with it while playing. i dont have to pick it up and look through it everytime i take a swing. the gps manufacturers are wising up now and several of them are selling their devices with no annual fees and come with thousands of courses already installed. on top of that, many of them are actually cheaper than the v2. i got my v2 as a gift. i used it for 2 rounds and went back to my gps. while using the v2, i had my gps unit on. most measurements were the same or within a yard of each other when i was able to keep the v2 still enough for a good measurement.

I have used the V2 range finder now for 3 weeks, playing golf at least 3 times a week. I have found the V2 to be extremely accurate, versatile, light weight, compact, and easy to use. I also have a Sky Caddie to compare distances, and the V2 is right on every time. I am a 5 handicapper, and I've found this device to be perfect for my needs. I purchased this model because I had read other reviews that the more expensive models with more features and 7x power were not as compact and easy to use because of the size and having to hold the higher power models very steady when looking through the viewfinder. The Sky Caddie gives faster readouts, naturally, so I use it most of the time; however, it still has a $50 annual renewal, requires periodic charging (about every 4th round), and new courses have to be downloaded. I think most players would do fine with just the V2.
