Don't let the shot of a lifetime hinge on a guess. With the Yardage Pro Sport 450, you'll be confident to the last yard. Affordable and simple to use, the Sport 450 offers a ranging performance of 5 to 999 yards, so you can accurately learn the distance to the pin, a nearby hazard, or a deer down the way. The rangefinder is also accurate to within a yard even if you're measuring in rain or snow or through foreground clutter like brush and branches. And the Sport 450 is a breeze to use thanks to the simple one-button operation. Equipped with a slim, weather-resistant body that stands up to moist conditions, the Yardage Pro is used by more than 600 touring pros, including 18 of the to 20 money winners on the PGA Tour.
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 at the press of a button. In the process, the rangefinder uses a high-speed digital clock to measure the time it took for the laser beam to reach the target and return, and then calculates the distance within plus-or-minus 1 yard. The entire process is so fast that less than a second elapses between the time you press the button and the time the exact range appears. The information appears on the Sport 450's through-the-lens LCD display.

Because rangefinders bounce laser beams off targets in order to take measurements, their range is partially determined by the target's reflectivity. So distances to reflective or "hard" targets like rock cliffs and semis can be measured from farther away than those to soft-surface targets such as deer. Ranges for moderately reflective targets, like trees, fall somewhere in the middle. Most experienced hunters will use their rangefinder to estimate ranges to near and distant landmarks before they actually encounter a game animal. By pre-measuring ranges to spots where trophies are likely to appear, they can concentrate on making an accurate shot when the moment of truth arrives.

Great for Golf,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bushnell Yardage Pro Sport 450 Laser Rangefinder (Sports)
I used a friend's today on the golf course and it worked well. Contrary to one other review on this site, it works fine from 200 yards. Easy to use and much better than many others I have tried on the golf course. I was sold the first time I used it. It is very accurate as well. Great product for a reasonable price. The size and weight are just right for the golf course.

Perfectly acceptable range-finder for the money,

This review is from: Bushnell Yardage Pro Sport 450 Laser Rangefinder (Sports)
For what this item is and for what it does, it's just fine. I use it when working as a Stereographer to determine the distances of fairly close objects that are just a bit too distant to tape measure.
One thing, though: The word "clam" in the description does NOT refer to the unit's color. The unit is NOT green like the one depicted in the illustration. It is a black unit. The word "clam" in the item description refers to the annoying clear plastic "clam-shell" packaging the rangefinder is contained within. BTW, do not buy the extra case. You get a free case with the unit. The strap that comes with the rangefinder is useless. There are no directions on how to attach it and there is no obviously logical way to determine how to do so. Fortunately, I had a different strap from a recent convention badge that worked beautifully.

Bushnell Range Finder,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bushnell Yardage Pro Sport 450 Laser Rangefinder (Sports)
I ordered this product to measure distances between utility poles. We typically measure these distances with a "Wheel". However, the poles were not on level paved ground rather they were set across country over hills and valleys. The Range Finders proved to be a time saving and accurate tool. We will continue to use these as our measuring tool for all future jobs.
I orderd the product to be delivered overnight and I received them (3) the next day.
