Bushnell has introduced a 5 power monocular that provides distance from 50-200 yards / meters to a flag. Knowing distance to the flag enables a golfer to determine the correct club to execute a shot or clear a hazard. Knowing correct distance ultimately improves confidence and scores on the course. The 5x20 Golf Scope is compact enough to fit into a pocket and very simple to use. Looking through the 5x focus-free monocular brings objects five times closer to your eye, providing sharp crisp detailed images. Within the golf scope is an etched rangefinder reticule. Once you have the base of the flag lined up to the bottom line of the reticule, simply determine distance to the flag by reading the numbers on the reticule that align with the top of the flagstick. The Bushnell Golf Scope is a great gift idea!
product not as accurate as I expcted...takes time to locate target and then have to do a fair amount of estimating of the distance...for the money still better than totally gussesing the distance
Not what I expected

Said you could range within 20 yards. This is not true. Disappointed with product and see no use item so I am throwing it away. Waste of money!!!
Great product for the golfer

A waste of Money

Don't waste your money. I thought at best this gadget might give me an estimated yardage and at worst would not give any reliable data. The result was the latter.
The range is based on the green flag pole being a standard height for all greens and courses. This does not appear to be the case. In order to get a reading you must be dead because it is so sensitive to movement.
The optics are clear and bright. I left it in a golf cart after a round and it was not turned in. I thought so little of it that I figured anyone who keeps it, deserves it.
Not quite what I expected

It's winter. Haven't had a chance to actually try it out, but seems as though it will work well enough.
Too many items listed though, making it confusing to compare differences and the item received was not as it was presented, but rather, like another item listed.
