I'm graduating from college and I'm trying to find a golf gift for myself from my parents (nice, I know...) I play a lot and almost never ride, I'm just trying to stop playing the guessing game out on the course.

Ive read up on all the features of the Bushness Pinseeker models and they seem pretty solid, realiable and user friendly. The only issue I'm wondering about is battery life, I know its a small issue but these suckers use 9V's and they arent cheap...

anyone out there have any issues with battery life or do they pull their weight for a 400 price tag?

thanks guys

I have had my Pinseeker for almost two months now and have played at least 15 rounds of golf using it. I am still on the first battery.

I don't think battery life is going to be an issue.

Ditto. Mine lasts about 20-40 rounds. I really don't remember. As long as I've had mine I've only replaced the battery a few times. I use it on every hole, sometimes a few times.

Batteries expend energy as they age as well as when they are used. So, for the longest battery life in any device, be sure to use the freshest batteries.

I've had my Pinseeker since January, and I've used it a number of times. The batteries show no sign of wearing out. Battery life doesn't seem to be an issue with this marvelous tool. I would think this would be a great gift.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Zeph ·

      First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
