I got an older bushnell 1500 and it works great. Doesnt do anything fancy, but they can be had for cheap.

Check your local Academy, might have some old stock.

I scored a Bushnell Tour Z6 Jolt for $220. It was the display model but works great.

Also just check around online, plenty of deals. Think you can get the Nikon Coolshot 20 for $199.

I got the Bushnell Tour V4 Patriot Pack off of ebay for $250 with shipping, like it so far and I've heard they last.

Get a bushnell or leupold. Get the cheapest one you can find. The features on the more expensive ones aren't worth the extra money IMO. I picked up this little sleeve with a magnet in it, and it's pretty badass. Just sticks to the windshield posts of the cart. You can also pick it up with your club if you leave it on the ground. It's called the Monument Golf Stick It.

TecTecTec with slope off Amazon $180. Bought it on prime day for $125. Works perfectly, side by side with my buddy’s bushnell within a yard everytime.

I bought a Bushnell The Truth (hunting range finder) for $99 at Cabelas during a day after Thanksgiving sale and it’s been great. Gives the same yardage’s as my buddies Bushnell V4 and was a 1/3 the cost.

I have the TecTecTec one. Once it locks it’s within a yard of the bushnell. But sometimes it takes a few tries to get it to lock.

I've wondered if the MG Golf range finders are any good. Their gloves and C4 balls are great...and the price is right.

I've got a tectectec and it sucks. Don't even use it anymore. Mine has the pin seeker tech and I can sit there for 10 minutes going back and forth on the pin and it still won't pick it up most days.

Read some reviews, and I'm certainly not the only one with this problem.

Buy a decent brand like Bushnell or Nikon. I got mine as a Christmas present last year from the inlaws. I helped pick it out so I went the cheap route.

I’ve wondered if the mg finders are any good to. I’ve used there gloves for a long time and they’re as good or better than any of the titleist or footjoy gloves.

OP, you in BR? I think I saw a V3 on the FaceBook marketplace asking $210. You could probably offer him something had the case and the silicon case.

I have two, i have a Nikon Monarch 1200 that I use when I play and I have an illegal V4 tour that caddy buddy of my dad's gave me that I don't like. My Nikon is small, light and can update on the fly so i hold the button down and it hits the target and is fast.

I would buy another Nikon in a second if I was in need of a new rangefinder.

I'm really cheap so I jog around the fairway looking for a sprinkler head and guess the rest of the way.

I'm in shape though
