Must have a steady hand! 
2008-05-06
I have found results up to 150 yards to be ok for hand holding. Past 150 you need to rest the Rangefinder on either a cart, Push cart, or even a tree. A monopod would also solve this problem. It does as advertised and has made a huge difference in my approach shots. You will quickly find some markers at your local course could be off as much as 20 yards. Pine trees work out to be the easiest to get a reading from though still difficult past 300 yards. After much research this is the best for the buck. Would highly recommend.
A nice unit if your steady.

I have not taken the opportunity to use the Bushnell Pro Tour Laser Rangefinder , that much. I have to be very steady to get the yardage I need. For a person that is steady I think they would enjoy the results and the unit which is nice and compact.
The Company that I purchased the range finder from is very much customer oriented and wants me to be satisfied,
Bushnell yardage pro 
2008-02-08
This yardage pro is GREAT..I now can check the yardage not only to the pin, but to the bunkers, water and is great for lay up shots.
Rangefinder 2007-05-13
Good Device and simple to use.
Beyond 150 yards it is difficult to get a yardage indication from the flag.
Inside 150 its dead on.
From yardages beyond 150 yards the device is accurate when viewing grass, bunkers, trees etc.
Rangefinder dissappointing 
2007-05-13
I expected that the rangefinder would consistently give me a correct distance to the flag. Instead it often gives two or three different readings varying as much as one hundred yards. By using my common sense I can eliminate the 234 yard reading and settle on the 94 yard reading if I know I am around 100 yards out. Friends with the laser rangefinders that reflect off the flags that are so equipped, and friends with older model Bushnell rangefinders do not seem to have this problem. I tried to return this product but was told I could not because I did not have the original packaging. Conclusion: disappointing product and unacceptable return policy.
Makes the game a lot easier 2007-01-17
For the passionate few who demand perfection at every teebox, fairway or bunker, there's the Bushnell Yardage Pro Golf models. Reducing strokes every round played, with accuracy to +/- 1 yard from 10 to 1, 000 yards away, the guesswork of club selection is eliminated. It's so effective at improving your game you may find yourself golfing alone.
Bushnell Yardage Pro Tour Laser Rangefinder 2007-01-15
Excellent. Upgraded from Yardage Pro 400. This one is so small. Much more convenient than the 400. This one just clips on your bag. Works better as well. Even picks up those flags that are just hanging there on a overcast, windless day. The scan feature is nice to verify that you are zoning in on the proper target.
Critique 2007-01-11
After 2 or 3 tries, I usually get the distance to the flag. However, it often picks up larger items behind the flagstick. I like the fact that I can measure to other items other than the flag (such as bunkers and water hazards.)
Excellent for Golf 2006-10-17
I've used this since 2001 and extensively in 2006 now that it's USGA legal. Not sure why others have having trouble holding this steady. Anything <200 yards I have no problem hitting the flag (you don't aim at the stick, you aim at the flag). Excellent for getting distances to bunkers, trees, and other hazards.
200 and over it is difficult for me to hit the flag, but all you have to do is wait for someone to pull or reinsert the pin, and you beam it off the player.
Inside 150 I've never had a problem getting the distance. I have learned to first laser an object behind the pin (such as a tree), then move up to the pin so I know for sure that I'm getting the flagstick and not the tree in the background.
My dad has the "Pinseeker" model and it IS quicker and easier to beam off a small object, but it's also a lot more expensive... and it's larger.
Great idea but not effective -- too difficult to hold steady 2006-10-07
I bought the Bushnell Yardage Pro Tour Laser Rangefinder despite warnings about the inability to hold it steady enough. I have no tremor; neither do I have any problems with steadiness; however, I found it practically impossible to hold the laser crosshairs on the flagstick from 60-100 yards away without getting a multitude of readings, depending upon what reflection it relied upon. I found myself with a multiple choice reading, and even the one closest to my estimate was doubtful. Even steadying the binoculars on the cart edge didn't really help much.
I'd really love to find something that was quick, easy to use, and reliable. My short iron and wedge shots are my most reliable means to birdie and par!
