This item looks good on paper but in practice is quite unusable. In order to have a workable yardage reading from which to select a club, it is necessary to hold the scope absolutely rock solid while sighting on the green pin. This is an impossible task. While the manufacturer acknowledges that the reading is approximate, "approximate" takes on whole new meaning with this scope. Readings are easily + or - 20 yards. Compared with this size of an error, my eyeball does equally as good a job.

I bought this and found it to be extremely cheaply made and not water proof at all, I would not recommend buying this unless you are looking to waste money on such a poorly made item not even good enough for a gift.

Can not reliably use the golf scope to estimate the yardage since it is impossible for me to hold it steady. I should have listened to bad review of this product. Wish I could return it except my children broke it while they were playing with this.

rather than spending an extra $10, I bought this one. useless. maybe it's just the one I got, but it's blurry. I had one (that was left in a cart) that I used to find my ball more than for distances, but this one can't focus on anything. you get what you pay for.

This scope is what it is, a small, graduated monocular. You must hold it steady to use it effectively. It should be used to augment your distance estimates, in addition to course markers, etc. You don't get sophistication at this price. For beginning golfers, it's better than a wag!

This inexpensive optic allows you to measure the distance to the pin on any golf hole. The big attraction with this quality scope is the fact that it costs a fraction of some others but is just as accurate as more expensive types. It's easy to use and might even improve your game!!!

Description of this item said that it measured a distance of 50 to 300 yards. It only measured a distance of 50 to 200 yards. Very disappointed.

it is the worst rangefinder i have ever seen i bought this item thinking that it would actualy "find" the "range" it is horable

The eyesight is good, but it's not offer the anti-shake so the sight tremble badly and it's hard to measure the exact distance.

The product is solid built and works just like it says. I saw other people had issues for can't holding it steady... well, put your arm on the golf cart or even use a club as a mono-pod or something...I am a beginning golfer and not ready to spend $200+ on a laser yet, this is great!
