Pretty easy to use once you figure it out. Pretty accurate for the most part but sometimes its off by 1 to 5 yards, nothing crazy but still makes a difference.

I have targets set at known ranges. This range finder is almost always 1-3 yards off as compared against known targets and other range finders. 1-2 yards is a big deal. It feels unreliable and cheap in my hand.

I have been looking for a rangefinder for both golf and hunting, but they are fairly expensive so I held off. I found this one which was a good value and was advertised for both golf and other activities like hunting and decided to give it a try.When it first arrived my expectations were fairly low. As the pictures try to show, the finish is hard plastic without rubberized grip material like other range finders I have used. It is also very light (which can be a good thing), but it reinforced this may not be well made.I first took it up to the mountains to a local ski hill, so I could test it at longer ranges. The conditions were wet and overcast, but the rangefinder was giving me readings out to 1100 yards. I had an old rangefinder that was only giving readings out to about 350 yards at the same time. At the shorter distances, this rangefinder was within a couple of yards, which is within the range of human unsteadiness on the target.Since I could not verify the yardages on the ski hill, I took the rangefinder to a local driving range. The final picture shows their measured yardage markers all the way out to 200 yards. I ranged every marker and each one was within a couple of yards of the marked distance. So it does appear that not only does this rangefinder go out past 1000 yards, but it is also accurate to within a couple of yards at least out to 200 yards.There are several modes so you will need to read through the directions to ensure you pick the correct mode for your activity (golf, hunting, other). The rangefinder also offers readings in either yards or meters, which again are accessed using the 'mode' button per the directions.One item I originally missed was the focus ring located around the eyepiece. When I first got to the ski hill, everything was extremely blurry. It has been years since I had to focus my old rangefinder, so I forgot they were not autofocus. I re-read the directions, adjusted focus (which was easy using the focus ring) and everything was perfectly clear. Overall I am very happy with the initial performance, both in the mountains and on the golf course. If the rangefinder does not hold up in the longer term, I will update the review but for now it earns 5 stars for accuracy and ease-of-use.

I can be rough on laser rangefinders. I've tested quite a few, and I've come to have a mantra of sorts. The first thing a laser rangefinder has to do, is laser rangefind. Simple, right?You'd be surprised how many laser rangefinders I test that will vary by as much as +/- 5 yards on a ~50 yard measurement. So the first challenge I put before any laser rangefinder I test, is a simple 50 yard "gold-standard" test, which is directly in front of my house, measured at 52 yards with my "benchmark" laser rangefinder, a Leupold (which is fantastically accurate), a pole barn which is right in front of me. It is highly reflective, and a very reliable test for laser rangefinder accuracy and consistency. Standing in one spot, I take 10 measurements, and note them all.When I say this performed admirably for the price point, it's no small compliment coming from me. Literally, 52, 52, 52, 52, 51, 52, 52, 51, 52, 52. I consider this to be VERY consistent, especially at this price point. If this were a $400 rangefinder? I would question those 51's. For this? I consider this performance to be well above average and I give it a "smiley face" for passing the first, most important test, of which I've seen so many fail. Good job.The rest of the good is pretty straight forward. The clarity in the viewfinder is good when you get it focused, and the operation is pretty simple. About the hardest thing I figured out after just fiddling with the buttons and not even reading the manual was switching between (M)eters and (Y)ards. Imagine reading the manual. Very simple operation, and as stated earlier, it's actually accurate and consistent.As far as the bad parts? Well, it's made a little "plastic-y" for my taste (but, it is quite reasonably priced), and I hate the fact it uses a CR2 battery, versus just having a built-in rechargeable battery. And I didn't find it to be particularly "glasses-friendly". I had to take my glasses off to see through this properly, and I wasn't a fan of that. If you depend on glasses and get annoyed at taking them off to take a range, you may find this doesn't work well for you.The question becomes, then, does the bad outweigh the good? I don't think so. A CR2 should last quite a while, maybe just order a pack of them when you order this so you have backups. Not being glasses friendly is the only thing that might keep me personally away. I'm quite pleased with its overall performance, and for a laser rangefinder that's literally 9/10ths of the battle. And given the price point, it's quite a good value, if you want something that actually works but don't want to spend a lot. 4 stars.
