Coming back from a great price, I asked myself two questions: why more and more players use a laser rangefinder and why me, I did not?. Nightlife mini-binoculars for the exact distance of the flag Yeah, it seemed interesting but not really necessary. Then, the rangefinder, accessory fluff, a bit ridiculous or real asset to the game? To get to the bottom, j 'I asked to try one. I received valuable Bushnell Tour V2, those that can be used in competition this year (test period with the Federation), there are now almost a month. The first week I've hardly played, the next two I was traveling, as last week, well I forgot to pick up every time my (my) Bushnell. ... Yesterday, I finally decided to try it seriously. I hooked the orange pouch on my bag and hopped. First test on my journey, partly training. Initially: checking distances on the map correctly. For the approach, I think my shot at 60 meters, 71 meters V2 tells me, as is his job, I trust him. I let my shot from 70 meters: the flag. Ah! I'm beginning to appreciate V2. Little Quack second shot at the second hole: 132 yards, not 102, not 132, not 112? I laid on the rule PinSeeker, I did indeed seek the flag in the tiny circle and then everything becomes clear: flag = 102 meters, 132 = the tree behind, 112 =? I had to move to the slope. So with a little care, it quickly recovers the correct distance. After a dozen tries, I use it without error and the case is made: it is a very comfortable not having to fumble around 10-15 meters. With the right distance, I am more confident and safer use of the club. I swing back to being sure not to go beyond the green and suddenly I gained in precision. I had no intention of falling into the trap of this gadget but I must admit that I did not. And yet, here I play on my journey. I can well imagine the interest of the thing outside. My next challenge is probably making me addicted to the rangefinder. In any case, I promise not to use it to below 50 meters because now, this is ridiculous. So, I recommend buying this rangefinder? Well against all odds, yes. I think I'm having a little trouble to make my new toy to its constructor. The equity in my golf bag I made life easier today. It is as if I had a caddy who tells me that yes, it is my time to play Iron 6. By removing a degree of doubt, I'm more relaxed and suddenly .... Only small flat (yes, there is one anyway) is the price of my new friend V2, which appears still more than 300 euros. I just fear that in trying, it is difficult in the end, not to adopt it. I have long said that it was useless at my level. Since I use one, I am disabled when I forget or if it is not allowed.It can be serene in the choice of club after the move is good is the business of the player, but there is at least clear the doubt of club selection. It seemed that he was authorized during the year 2010 (for a test period that will probably renewed). To me, this is the model with the slope (which compensates for slopes) which was banned in compet. Update: Apparently, it is authorized in 2010 for federal competitions but the clubs are not obliged to approve their use for other competitions, basically it depends on local rules. I read with interest your article on the Bushnell Tour V2 Laser and others, I see you in France have agreed in Competition, in Belgium they are still prohibited in competitions. I understand that it is easy to yield to the temptation of comfort and technology, but like many players I'm afraid we lose the soul of our sport. And what about our young people in search of the facility will lose the creativity of the knowledge of the game and the sense of tactics. But I hope that in order to keep the soul of golf, you do not give in to the temptation of drivers with large heads, the Hybryds orthopedic and clubs .... Sure, it's interesting but it removes a little something to the party, doubt about club selection is a motivation that I can not live without. Maso? Me? same time I do not like shopping carts or the Board. I prefer accustomed to landmarks on the ground but I understand that some uses. It is claimed that facilitates golf, but some people do not want to practice golf facility and I part. I do not want to become a surveyor and managed the field again or pleasure and success in the facility??. This unit is anything but a gimmick. Especially for me who am unable to assess correctly the distances from the eye, and playing in clubs where positions are very rarely given flags at the start of competitions. At 70 meters in the morning I can think as much as 85 to 55 meters. Some greens are large, often more than 20-30 meters. All that know the exact distance of the coup to play is a definite plus. Because we realize that ultimately the length of his shots is not so erratic that it (for cons, the direction is something else), and that when a figure reassure you about the club to play, it becomes much safer. I even think that this device saves me about three shots on a course, more than any driver or set of irons last cry. ..
