Your Bushnell Pinseeker 1500 is an advanced premium laser rangefinder comprised of digital technology that allows range readings from 5 to 1,500 yards. Measuring 1.7 by 5.1 by 3.7 inches, the 10-ounce Pinseeker 1500 delivers superb and accurate range performance to +/- one yard. The Pinseeker 1500 features Selective Targeting Modes, superb optical quality, 100% waterproof construction, and Bushnell's RainGuard coating. The Pinseeker 1500 emits invisible, eye-safe, infrared energy pulses. Its Advanced Digital microprocessor and ASIC chip (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) results in instantaneous and accurate readings every time. Sophisticated digital technology instantaneously calculates distances by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangefinder to the target and back. The ranging accuracy of the Pinseeker 1500 is plus or minus one yard under most circumstances. The maximum range of the instrument depends on the reflectivity of the target. The maximum distance for most objects is 1,000 yards, while for highly reflective objects the maximum is 1,500 yards. The Pinseeker 1500 features a powerful 7x magnification monocular for viewing your target. Optics are fully multi-coated, allowing maximum light transmission for optimum brightness, superb resolution, and contrast for a clear vivid image even in low-light conditions such as dusk or dawn. A liquid crystal display (LCD) is mounted within the optical system and, when activated, displays a reticle for targeting, yards and meters, and Mode indicators. Laser Rangefinder Features Standard with Automatic Scan (A) Scan across the course while viewing a continuously updated LCD display of the distance between you and your target. Meters/Yards (B) You can quickly choose between these standard measuring units with a simple press of a button. Reticle (C) The distance to objects targeted in these crosshairs will be displayed on the Distance Readout with the press of a button. Battery Indicator (D) Flashes when battery power is low. Target Quality Gauge (E) Gauge indicating amount of energy pulses being received back from the target. Pinseeker 1500 Targeting Modes BullsEye Geared for close-range use, this mode acquires the distances of small targets and game without inadvertently measuring background target distances. When more than one object is acquired, the closer of the two objects is shown on the LCD display. . Brush Ignores the foreground, such as brush, boulders and tree branches, and provides distances on the LCD display to background objects only. . PinSeeker Designed exclusively with the bottom of the cup in mind, this mode allows easy acquisition of the flag without inadvertently capturing background target distances. When more than one object is acquired, the closer of the two objects is shown on the LCD display. . Slope+/- Measures slope, +/- one degree of angle, and compensated range, based upon ball trajectory and type of club used. All shown on LCD display. . Laser Rangefinder Tech Talk A laser rangefinder is a distance-measuring instrument that uses laser technology to calculate the distance to targeted objects. Accuracy is +/- 1 yard, and the distance is displayed instantaneously on a built-in, through-the-lens Liquid Crystal Display. 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. Reflectivity of Target Types Because rangefinders "bounce" a laser beam off the target in order to take a measurement, their range is partially determined by the reflectivity of the target. In other words, hard or "reflective" targets -- like a rock cliff or semi-truck -- can be measured at greater distances than soft surface targets, like a deer. Ranges for moderately reflective targets, like trees, fall somewhere in the middle. Most experienced hunters will use their rangefinder to frequently estimate ranges to near and distant landmarks before they actually encounter a game animal. By "pre-measuring" ranges to spots where a trophy is likely to appear, they can concentrate on making an accurate shot when the moment of truth arrives.

Some of the other devices need to have a stablized target. And that is difficult since the hands holding the devices cannot be that stable when you are on the course trying to figure out which club to use. This one had a pinseeker which searched the flag automatically. Even though your hands cannot be stable, it pick up the target quickly. The response time is the key reason that I come back for it.

I've owned this range finder for two years now and love it. It is very rugged (fell off the cart twice), very accurate, and the slope function gives you information that you just can't get any other way. Our country club has yardage tags on all of the sprinkler heads, but how often does you ball end up near one of them? We like having the ability to find the yardage to any spot or object on the course without being limited to those items that the GPS company has put into their system. It makes a huge difference knowing the yardage to the current location of the pin (since it changes on a daily basis) compared to GPS units that only give you distance to the center, front or back of the green. And why should you have to pay a monthly or annual maintenance fee to a GPS company after you purchase their device? That makes no sense to me. The only challenge is that you have to have a steady hand to lock in on distant targets. But then, you have to have steady hand to score low, so it's good practice. While it is true that you can't use this in a tournament because of the slope feature, for your regular golfing needs, it can't be beat.

It is one of the best investments I have ever made. Talk about building your confidence. Ever been on the course and stepped off your yardage based on the markers on the course? Many times you are not sure you can trust the markers. With this laser, you shoot it and you have 100% trust in it.

The Bushnell 1500 is the last rangefinder you'll ever need. PROS: Easy to operate. 7x power and pinseeker technology make it so easy to lock-on to you target. Operates on a common 9-volt battery. It is exactly as advertised. Slope mode is nice too. It gives you the actual yardage and the yardage you should play the shot to according to the degree of the slope...all on the same screen. You should know that the slope edition is not legal in tournaments. Comes with a nice case with a magnetic latch so removing and putting the unit away between shots is quick and easy. CONS: None.

It is so easy to use!! Having just played a golf course with unbelievable hills, I was shocked to see the difference in uphill and downhill yardage!! I know the slope is illegal for tournament play, but the Pinseeker also has the the basic yardage set up.
