MiLESEEY Golf Rangefinder, PF3S, 875 Yards, Slope Switch, External LCD Display, Flag Lock with Pulse Vibration, High-Precision, Legal for Tournament Play, Compact Design, Waterproof

Well I've been pondering for sometime now to get or not to get "that is the question" so I've taken the plunge, saved a ton compared to its rivals & I'm very happy upto nowSo, the lens is incredibly clear, it's slightly tight "currently" to rotate, but that's a good thing, hopefully it says this way...Range finding is easy & yes there's quite afew options to select, making matters even better.It's light, compact, it's got all the accessories you'd need.. ie x2 batteries, yes it only needs x1 to operate fully.. a lens cloth, carry case with a belt loop & belt clip for quick attach etc, full instructions etcSo, upto now I've noticed playing with it through a glass window is almost useless for distance work.. close range it works but nothing further "glass,dirt & rain effects its function as per 100% of other rf's on the commercial market" its clear to read & this model has the side screen so it repeats the measurements & holds them so you can have reference etc.. (this side screen can be turned off via the side power button) I did opt for this model as I didn't want the hassle of inbuilt batteries n the possible issues caused by such. I'm using it for archery ie outside target work & further target work... so it's more of reference for me etcAs always I'll update, add images as & when

E' la seconda volta che acquisto questo articolo, in quanto il primo mi è stato rubato.Rispetto al precedente ho trovato la grafica leggermente meno leggibile ed il materiale con cui è fatto mi è sembrato di minore qualità (ma è solo una sensazione.) Il funzionamento, al momento, soddisfa le mie esigenze.In più rispetto a prima, hanno aggiunto una ulteriore batteria ricaricabile (della quale non si trova menzione nella descrizione del prodotto, quindi o è un errore, oppure questa indicazione può tornare utile a chi dovesse acquistarlo).

I'm one of those nerds who research everything to death before a purchase so before buying this I watched countless YT ads and read numerous reviews. Eventually I took the plunge - although tbh it's not much of a plunge at this price - and bought it. I've been more than pleasantly surprised by the quality and how well it works with one caveat which I'll mention later.I took it out to my course last weekend. There were a number of positives for me and a few areas for improvement:1. It attaches to your bag really well - the clip to attach to the bag then the elastic hook on the case itself which allows you to open the zip but keep the case safe meant really fast access.2. The eyepiece of the rangefinder is easy to focus. Make sure you do that properly as I was tempted to accept slightly less than completely in focus and that made the eventual flag location harder. My fault. The image should be very crisp.3. I tried the normal crosshairs mode first with slope button off as that makes it competition legal. To be honest I found this quite difficult. Yes, I improved quite quickly but it still wasn't easy, especially as we had a (not strong) wind that day. It moves about making it hard to know when to press the button for distance. It took several goes with most of them ending with a distance to the trees behind the flag rather than flag itself. However, I did get better at it and when I did the distances were spot on. I know this because we have signs out on the range at 50/100/150 etc. and I focussed on them.4. However, the real power of the rangefinder becomes obvious when you switch the slope button on and select flag lock and vibration . IMPORTANT: You can only use flagpole lock and vibration with slope button ON ( which makes it illegal for comps!) Not sure why they decided on this or if there is a technical reason. More later.5. Flagpole lock and vibration is AWESOME !!!! Slope button on, press mode button, flag icon appears. You point at the flag and basically wave it slightly right then left and buzz. You get the vibration and distance. So quick ! Loved this mode which makes it stranger that it wasn't put into the slope button off side.6. Charging is a breeze with USB and battery easily lasted a practice on the range plus a full round.7. Customer service. I've seen a couple of negative comments about this company in regards to communication but that hasn't been my experience. I fired off an email about the flag lock and vibration only being available with slope button on and they got back to me overnight , confirming this and asking if I thought it would be useful for them to add this to the slope off side. Surprised they hadn't done that automatically but still good, quick response.Negatives. Only one really but that is a big one. One of the reasons I bought the rangefinder was to use in competitions. It is a great piece of kit but it looks like I'll have to learn how to use the slope off/crosshairs method during competitions. No, nobody will check - not sure how they could as the very fact it has the slope off button makes it a legal device - but that's not really the point. Pity as otherwise this is a superb piece of kit.One other small issue I found but maybe it won't bother others. When you put your eye right up to the eyepiece I found first I had to slightly push my cap up a bit ( not really an issue) but also the actual lense isn't far at all from the entrance to the eyepiece so you find your eyelashes showing up, obscuring a part of the screen. It'd be good if they added just a little depth so the lense was deeper into the eyepiece to avoid this.Overall, I'm going to keep this rangefinder. One round more with it and I'm starting to love it. It's quick to use and in still conditions there is no issue with the crosshairs although a bit of wind and that changes. It's the difference between having to be spot on the flag and being able to let it move naturally left to right with flag lock and vibrations. It sounds silly but it has also added a fair amount to my confidence in standing up to a shot. I used an Apple watch and Golfshot which was great but it only gave me front middle and back distances and some of our greens are about three clubs deep, allied to the fact that our greenskeepers have a strange idea of what middle is! It could be as much as ten yards out.Finally, the company in their email said that if I thought it was a good idea, then they try to incorporate customers' thoughts into their next version and that they have passed my suggestion re slope side having flagpole lock and vibration to their software engineer so it may be the the next version will solve this.If you can operate crosshairs mode well ( I'm getting on a bit and it's quite tiring holding it up for a while so it can capture the flag) or if you don't need it for competitions I find it hard to imagine a better choice for a rangefinder.

Gives accurate distance and perfect addition to golf bag

Good case
