$89 Rangefinder vs $450 Rangefinder

[@MrShortGame]

It’s possible it was recording in feet however it did say yards on the device. Plus I kept changing it from meters to yards. Took the red one out 3 different days and it was always off in different ways.

[@christiancamp8898]

MrShortGame that is what I was going to say but it still sounds horrible

[@calevanbrunt5606]

Is the wosports w600 worth the upgrade?

[@swisst2324]

without actually measuring the targets its impossible to say which one was the most accurate. just saying like...

[@kevindetwieler9212]

The targets at the range are already measured, they usually have the distances posted on a stone or something.

[@davidmatthews1514]

Enjoyed the review, very much to the point. Wosports is now bookmarked. For anyone looking to buy a rangefinder, take care of it. They tend to be fragile if dropped or if it falls out of its case. From experience, I bought a well padded small camera bag for my last Bushnell. Straps right to the golf bag and gives it great protection. Not in use on a shot, it's in the bag.

[@randomstuff4176]

I bought the WoSports W600 from Amazon and it would not range anything further than 125m, pin loc or scan mode.. Mine was white, not the charcoal of the one in this clip, so not sure they are actually the same thing. Best part was I returned it no problems ..

[@FL-gg4dq]

Where did you get the quadruple espresso with guarana?

[@thomasdunlap3533]

Thanks matty! Keep doing what you do. My game has improved because of your vids

[@nickhennick]

Over here from the Golfholics...looking forward to meeting them out here this summer at Bandon Dunes!! Anyway I will have you know I just bought the $80 rangefinder because of your review!! Followed your link!! Thanks!!!

[@stoicvibesonly]

I use the Garmin Approach S20 watch and it is pretty close to my buddy's Bushnell every time. For my skill level being off by 1 or 2 yards doesn't make a difference

[@edwarddurkin6635]

twmusicoustic I also got the S20. It seemed the simplest. Anything you have to play around with just slows things down. I think the cellphones and range finders do. Dedicated GPS is fastest as long as you don’t have too many additional features.

[@robertavalos5584]

Awesome Video, very informative and I dig your energy and humor. Your a breath of fresh air in a sport (some say golf isnt a sport) that has a lot of douchers and uptight people.

[@jimjr4432]

It's his eXpresso! I love the guy's videos. Very creative drills, concepts and great enthusiasm.

[@chewyung4997]

What do u mean by reflective thing on the flag sticks, so the range finder can connect? What if the golf course you play on, doesn't have this attached to the flag sticks?

[@nickhennick]

Also, can this be used to find a yardage for a layup shot over a ravine say on a Par 5? I want to know what the distance is from a second shot to the edge of a ravine to layup. Don't know if that makes any sense but hey.. :)

[@MrShortGame]

Yes it can shoot the ground, bushes, trees etc. It's pretty solid for the price.

[@nickhennick]

@@MrShortGame like I said I ordered it because of your video!! Looking forward to this and more videos!! Thx

[@ericdomagala6245]

I use the bushnell v4 and i have been shooting closer to pin than ever. I use it on the range a lot too. I used to just wing it and look at yardage markers now that i have range finder im more confident to attack

[@levaughncrawford3726]

The W600 is no longer available. What is the recommended version to purchase now for under $100?

[@hotrodsgarage]

AOFAR sells the same product on Amazon for approximately the same price.

[@deanlundquist4658]

Is that the range at Olivas Links in Ventura? If it is, are the distances posted on the range kiosk close to what you shot in order to calibrate?

[@mikemaddalena63]

There is a version with slope for $20 more. I have it and it works great. I always test it against my buddies more expensive rangefinders and I get within a yard everytime. Cant beat it!

[@168jimmylu]

Hi Mike, do you mind telling me which one with slope that works great for 20 bucks more? thanks!

[@nateb4543]

What's the model name? Does it tell you the slope or give an adjusted distance?

[@mikemaddalena63]

Woosports H-100

[@ahtashambabar1274]

Please let us know the brand of red and black

[@jessebarnhart5321]

So happy I saw this video. I got the one with slope. ($115) with taxes. Great product!!!

[@168jimmylu]

Hi Jesse, can you tell me which one you got with slope for 115 bucks? thanks a lot! been shopping for one lately~~

[@scootertrasher1369]

I use the yardage markers, if there are none, I use my free Golf pad cell phone app , it has gps yardages to the center of green, did I mention FREE

[@Daviddear30]

Range finders have there place. They help in some situations where GPS won't. Like on the range. Practice. Etc. I use a Garmin G8 (not free) but I see value in range finders as well

[@scootertrasher1369]

Yep like hunting, the driving ranges around here have different colored flags marking different distances

[@Daviddear30]

Suburb A Knight not all ranges are like that. Ours here aren't. They move the tees and dont move flags etc

[@hitdog042]

Suburb A Knight using common sense those yardages are different from every spot you are hitting from on the range LMAO. Green flag says 75. From where? Certainly isn’t 75 from every single person hitting on the range.

[@JohnBlakeJr]

i like cell gps phone apps, but my problem is excessive heat and battery life on my aging phone. So, I carried a charger, but I play worse because I am distracted by email, social media, --squirrels! Leaving it in the bag and using the 100, 150, 200 yard indicators on the course and I still hit the ball in the water, sand or woods. I even had someone tell me when I asked questions about what features they liked about their rangefinder, --"your game is not good enough for a rangefinder." So, I am working on my swing and visually estimate, until my game is good enough.

[@cs1810]

Hey, the red one might have been measuring in feet?

[@Mr.mallaer]

It still didn’t make any sense because closer distances were measuring way further than those further away

[@jerrycostanzo1137]

The yardages between the 2 units during the multi target test showed that the yardages between the 2 units were not the same. Which unit recorded the "correct" yardages?

[@joshlynch5676]

I'd say generally with them being within 3-5 yards of each other, you could hit the same club for those shots. Either that or you could use markers on course and guess. They're probably close enough to what's "right" though.

[@hb6339]

Hi, how about the rs1200i-plus .

[@aimeagle]

Thanks for the snapshot review. The speed is for hunting if a animal is moving.

[@kremdelakrem7883]

hey matt can you scan the edges of bunkers / water with the WoSport range finder or is it strictly for the flag sticks?

[@marcovilla8417]

Have you tried the Voice Caddie L4 Laser Rangefinder

[@MegaMichal1998]

watch at 0.75 speed for normal watching experience XD thx for the review ;)

[@mitchlowe6596]

Great review. Don't worry about all the other nitwits. Honestly great video.

[@jfrederick3806]

for the money on that NIKON it better give you a slope reading!!

[@MarseeOrvil]

Wondering if that red and black one was in feet instead of yard

[@tonybee5009]

I have a red and black one like the one you threw away and it works perfectly for my air gunning needs.

[@ziggypuchalka7049]

Check the Boblov LF600AG with slop is very good and only A$130

[@ydargybwen]

Got any up to date range finder videos?

[@billmalec]

I used GPS on the phone for a while. Often times it's way off. Often times it's not even remotely close. The only time it's handy is when you're blocked from seeing the pin and can't use the range finder. Range finder is almost completely 100% correct all the time.

[@thecringegolfer]

I have been shopping around. I have never used one before and didn't need one years ago when I started playing. My daughter wants one but I have been reluctant to spend $300 or more on it. Cause like I said, I never had one and did ok. Thanks for the info!

If you liked the Wosports, you should check out a C9 SEEKER PRO, slope included.

[@cammacgregor9354]

Not sure about a rangefinder but I'd opt for whatever meds you're taking. A very entertaining video :-)

[@buickjam]

Was the other one reading feet instead of yards?

[@jeremypearson6852]

Great information, I’ve been looking for a low price one for a while.

[@peterkim77]

i like your showmanship !

[@eyesopen9477]

Talk about perfect timing. Last week I played and by the 4th hole I realized my Buschnel had fallen out of its clip thingy on my bag. Frogger strap that’s used to clip to golf cart frame. I usually always strap it on the cart before the round starts or after my first shot, but a playing partner had the same laser and we were just using his. Anyways, being on the start of the 4th I quickly back tracked to see if I could find it. It had a red rubber protector on it so it would have stuck out like a sore thumb on the course and any body would have seen it and been like ewww what’s that. Asked the guy (single player) behind us and of course, “ Never saw it” then the group behind him was a foursome of old farts. They never saw it either. I get frustrated of course as this is my 3rd buschnel in 5 years. 400 a pop. My gut tells me it was the single player, no witnesses, perfect storm for him to snag it and be like “Nope”. Pro shop never had it turned in. Gone. Lose faith in humanity more and more. Moral of the story. I’m buying a cheap one now and this one fits the bill. Or the tec tec on Amazon has great reviews. Not worth it to spend lots of money on something so easy to lose on the course and NO ONE turns in. Just writing this pisses me off all over again.

[@MGN01]

Eyes Open the exact same thing happened to me. I bout the TGW home brand for $170 and the clip was crappy; sure enough it fell off the bag when my cart was going over some bumpy areas. No one turned it in; slimy people out there. Can’t imagine pocketing something that didn’t belong to me. I’m going to switch to a Garmin watch. Best of luck to you.

[@cheezburger6130]

Basically all those Chinese range finders have the same electronics under the hood......all the under 100 dollar units at least..............you are going to get the odd one that needs calibration because of maybe mishandling during shipping and transportation.

I love how all of the comments are talking about how you've ben snorting coke. Haha. Anyway, I just wanted to say that there's absolutely nothing wrong or amoral about calling out a shit product. In fact, some might argue that your position on youtube gives you a moral responsibility *to* call out shit products and help prevent these companies from peddling their junk and scamming customers.

[@mickobrien3156]

These devices are so easily screwed up by anything with the slightest angle... which is basically everything unless you hit something dead on. Even a 1-degree angle can skew results if something is far away, as the angles add up to a big change the longer the distance... Anyway... Don't waste money on a cheap one of these. These are devices that really have to be highly precise with no cheap crappy budget parts. Remember, when dealing with distances, and especially any distance longer than, say, 50 feet, and any object that's not a massive object... the slightest skew from the laser hitting it on an angle will reflect back to you a screwy result you often know is wrong... that's how off they can be at times, and that's $300, $400, even $500 units. So forget any of the $100 units. They can't possibly work well. In professional settings where the measurements are crucial... these units can cost well over $15,000. That's how hard it is to make these things with the technology to be precise enough to rely on, really rely on. Otherwise, take your results with a plus or minus 10 or 15% variance. And that's alot. And I'm talking about $400 to $500 units. Like I said, completely forget cheap ones, like the ones advertised for $100. Don't waste the time and money. They're entirely unreliable. But even a $500 unit is reliable with a, oh, say a 10 or 15% swing. Not too great. Sometimes you get lucky, and it's dead on. Sure. If you're aiming at a large wall, for instance, a clear can't miss dead-on t-bone shot hitting the mark perfectly perpendicular from your pov, you know.

One thing you didn't mention is the type of battery they use. I have a rangefinder and have to use a mini round battery that costs about $10.
