Course has no markings on the sprinklers and even the 150/100 seem to be out (and no 200m markings wtf)

Looking for a Range Finder

Brand doesnt bother me too much, would like one that works well and can pick up the pins easily

I'm on the central coast nsw

Let me know what you have

Thanks all

Leupold GX 3. I have been using it for about 3/4 years. Top notch optics and simple to use. Battery last about 18 months and it has a very good Pin Loc system(Pin Hunter).

I've used Daves' Leupold and the optics are amazing.

Having said that, I love my V3 which I need to thank Daves for.

I got mine for around $300. Probably a bit tougher to do now with the dollar below parity, but they are on eBay for around $280/290 US.

I've been using this for well over a year with absolutely no problems. Has pin seeker and is within +/- 1m the same reading as my mates V3. I only paid $140 I think for mine.

For that price a locally bought v3 will get my cash.
