Callaway 300 Pro Golf Laser Rangefinder (with External Slope Switch)

OK, so, I read a bunch of reviews before my purchase and decided to give this rangefinder a try. I had a Bushnell that bounced off the cart (I wasn't driving) and into a creek at the end of last golf season. I had planned to just bite the bullet and buy another $400 Bushnell. But, saw this for less than half the price and with 4.7 stars and over 11K reviews, how bad could it be? It arrived today and works as advertised. Quick acquisition and seemingly accurate distance based on common sense and golfing for over 40 yrs. It's Jan in Michigan so, just shot some signs, light posts, etc., outside my office. I like that the vibration occurs even on objects like a car or, whatever. It doesn't require a pin to get confirmation feedback. So, the main reason for the high review before ever taking it out on a golf course is simple operation, quick acquisition, and very strong magnet relative to size and weight. I don't think this one is coming off a cart. If so, I'm probably off the cart as well. If your looking for a rangefinder that has clear optics and quite frankly just measures the distance to things easily and accurately, then this appears to be a good choice. I can't speak to durability given it just arrived but, I'm impressed with this little fella so far. If there any negatives or, at least insights I can offer, it is quite small. I have probably average size hands and this thing is small. Not so small that it's weird but, definitely an adjustment from the Bushnell. Also, the Amazon page claims it doesn't include a battery. Well, it does. So, my purchase of 4 batteries was essentially unnecessary but hey, I got the Amazon ones for like $10 or whatever. I probably would have held off on additional batteries had I know it included one. The Bushnell unit I had would last a year or more (30+ rounds) on a battery so, now I have spares to give to buddies. I'll update this review after a winter golf trip and/or next season if there are any changes in my opinion. For $170, if it lasts a couple of seasons, seems like a reasonable buy.

Simple to use, compact, nice carrying case and accurate. I was amazed at how it could lock on to the flag after giving me a couple of seconds to point, even with my shaky hands! WAY better than I had even hoped for!!!

Works great! Easy to use and accurate readings

Got this on prime days sale and it meets my expectations. It does what it’s supposed to do. Gives me accurate yardages and locks on to the pin decently quick. Only used it for two rounds so we will see how it holds up over time.

Very accurate, easy to handle, light weight, as good or better than Bushnell I previously owned

I have been very satisfied with my Callaway Golf 300 Pro Rangefinder. The accuracy is excellent, and I particularly like the magnet function that holds the device securely on my golf cart. The unit comes with a heavy-duty case that I often use when transporting the rangefinder in my golf bags. I know there are a lot of good rangefinders on the market, and I haven't tried most of them, but I can say that this Callaway unit has worked perfectly for my golfing needs.

Works quite well. Battery life is excellent. Easy to use. Comes with a case to attach to the golf bag.

I'm an avid golfer and a rangefinder is a must have. I have a garmin watch that usually gives me some distances but I use the range finger when I need an exact distance with slope. The Callaway Golf 300 Pro Rangefinder provides accurate distances with some cool features. It'll vibrate to let you know that the laser is locked so you can get your distance. You can also get a slope measurement or even turn it off. It's on the pricier side and doesn't seem worth it unless you can really hit your distances. The magnet that's built in is pretty strong and won't fall off. Actually it's a problem because I keep leaving the dang thing in carts; I'd recommend writing your number on the thing or add a sticker. I've left it at least 5x and the pro shop calls me every time. Highlights - Pulse technology - vibrates when locked so you can trust the distance - Strong magnet so you can keep it on your cart - Seemingly accurate distances (unless I actually measured it, which I'm not going to, I trust it); seems to coincide well with my Garmin that uses GPS. Overall, it's a really solid range finder. I don't recommend it for beginners who are just starting because it's got features that you probably won't make use of but as you get better and take into account slope; it's worth the price tag.

Good product. Unfortunately, want to get a second piece but price went up!

Si el campo en el que juegas NO ES PLANO entonces recomiendo muchisimo este finder con capacidad para medir distancias reales con la funcion de SLOPE. Una maravilla. Si juegas en campos planos, con cualquier GPS y app del celular es suficiente.

Works really well. have not had any instances of miss reads or inconsistency. easy to use

Perfect - bought my wife one and liked it so much I've now got one! Very light and easy to use. Accurate and quick.

Easy to use, great pin recognition.
