Are you getting the most out of you game?? (Bushnell TV2)

[Canuck]

I am just curious to see how many of you are using range finders on the course. I mean legal ones no slope.

With the changing of technology and new gear that is available for legal tournament use I can't see how anyone is going with out one of these now a days. The advantage of being able to pin point yardages you need to know is key. I have started using one full time since the end of last year and I have noticed a huge improvement in Constancy with FIR and GIR. Especially when it comes to competitive playing being able to know exact yardages is key to confidence. I have been using the Bushnell Tour V2 and I can say it is easy the best club in my bag.

Opinions and User feedback??

I use one. Not on every hole, and not even every round, but here and there to make sure my distances are what I think they are.

I recently got one.  I've been out of the game for about a decade due to military commitments, so I'm basically starting starting over.  I haven't really used it during play, but I use it extensively at the range as I'm trying to pin down exactly what my yardages are these days.  At the range I frequent the teeing areas aren't in a line but rather more of a curve, whereas the yardage markers extend straight out from the center of that curve.  If I'm on one of the ends, I'm hitting diagonally to the yardage markers, so they're basically meaningless.

I use one and it is the best investment I have ever made. There is nothing like knowing that you have 118 to carry the bunker and 130 to the pin to allow you to have confidence to hit that shot under the pin knowing exactly how much room you have.

I am going on the second full with mine and couldn't be happier.  Simply point and shoot and I know exactually which club I need for the shot.  IMO, the exact yardage gives me more confidence.
