What’s the difference between laser hunting and golf range finders?
I want to get a laser range finder for my first elk hunt but don’t have much cash. I got a shot at getting a Bushnell X500 golf laser range finder for really cheap but need to know if it will work for getting range on elk/deer/pig for longer shots like even up to 3-400 yds if necessary. Thanks in advance.
yes the Bushnell X500 golf laser range finder will work fine. I believe it is good up to 1000 yards.

What is the best golf range finder/gps system to buy?
I want to buy a range finder and want some opinions on which are the best? What makes them the best? What are the features? What is the price of each as well as any monthly or yearly fees?
I am going to disagree with everyone. Go rangefinder. Bushnell pin-seeker is the only one I have used.
Why:
1.Rangefinders will cost less money. No fees.
2.Rangefinders give you very accurate distance to the Pin. That’s really what you are after. Not distance to the back, front and middle.
3.You can also get distance to hazards, trees, and bunkers with a rangefinder.
4.More accurate yardages. GPS can be questionable, form distance
5.Most importantly, rangefinders give you the most accurate distance inside 100 yards!!! Tweeners are much easier with a rangefinder; GPS is useless with short game help.
I have played with both. Most experienced players have rangefinders, simply for the help with difficult distances, 30, 50, 75 yards.
***I almost forgot…one of the best reasons for a rangefinder over a GPS is getting accurate distances on the range.

What is the best golf range finder?
I golf the same ten courses for the most part in Northeast Wisconsin. Occasionally something new if I am on vacation or something. I am looking for a range finder that doesn’t need a lot of set up. What would be the easiest to use at a fair price?
