Range Finder For You
http://www.smartgolfaccessories.com Matthew
Golf range finders are becoming a craze for every golf players now- a-days.
Long back, you can find golf range finders only with professionals and the
cost of range finders were also too high to afford.
As the enthusiasm in the game and the fantasy towards usage of technical
gadgets increased, golf range finders are now featuring even in small put
games. But, before getting the right golf range finder that suits you, there
are various things you ought to know. I have discussed few key points that
should be concentrated before choosing the desired golf range finder.
Golf range finder is simple equipment that helps you in finding the distance
of the goal from the current position. Some advanced golf range finders
provide additional features such as choosing the club, etc. Golf range
finders differ only by the way they operate.
Basically, there are two types of golf range finders. They are laser and
GPS. In case of laser based golf range finder, it sends a harmless laser to
the pole and reflects it back to provide you the accurate distance remaining.

Laser based range finders are similar to binoculars which provides you
additionally, the information of distance to goal. The advantage of laser is
the rate of accuracy it provides. In case of GPS based golf range finders, it
uses the GPS technology and provides the distance to the winning post and
the direction.
You can also have a bird eye’s view in case of GPS based range finders.
Though accuracy of GPS is less compared to that of laser type, it has a good
base of features such as game statistics, tips etc.
Before going into the type of range finder, study the field you are planning
to play thoroughly and note down the requirements. As the purchasing
power of range finders have increased, companies have started providing
more features with less cost to survive the competition.
Some feature such as inclination measurement though not allowed in
tournaments, can help in accurate practicing of the hit. On the other side, in
case of high slope, lasers fail as they have to use intermediate points to
reach the goal.

After you have studied about your requirement, next in the row is the
budget. If you are planning for a one time investment, go for a laser type
range finder which will just need a set of batteries to operate.
If you want to practice accurately, I would suggest you to go for a laser type
range finder. If you are totally new and need support for your game, GPS
will be a best pick. GPS comes mostly with a yearly subscription.
GPS based range finders features various details in the map such as
position of water, gutter and other obstacles in the field. Though they are
loaded with features, they are costly compared to laser type and has few
cons such as signal problem, requirement of periodic up gradation of maps
and unavailability of maps of few fields, etc.
Channelize your need by brainstorming and finding the exact reason of buy.
If you really feel you desire for a GPS but you are not ready to scratch your
purse, you can use your smartphone as your range finder by just installing
an application.

The cost of the application will be mostly a onetime payment, hardly asking
to shed few dollars from your wallet. But, they also cannot be used
continuously as the battery life of your phone can’t withstand the entire
day’s play. Ask for expert’s advice and read the reviews of various range
finders.
Check out for famous brands like golfbuddy, bushnell, callaway, leupold
etc. It will be a better option, if you directly go to outlets, feel them in hand,
operate them and select the one that suits you.
