winders

Baynative, How can it ever be bad to know the actual distance to the target?? Regardless of whether or not they can make an accurate shot, I don't see how it is bad for players to know the actual distance to the target. Most players have a general idea how long they hit each club in their bag (if they don't, the range finder will help them sort that out too). So using a range finder at least allows them a better chance to pick the right club. The range finder allows them to make their windage and elevation guesstimates based on the correct yardage. I play to an 18 or so now and I can tell you that my range finder has helped me make more accurate shots. Yes, I still miss the green due to poor swings. but I am closer to the flag than I would be if I were still guessing at the actual yardage to the target. Scott

I don't get your guys (alleged purists) that think that range finders take away from the game. You are all to willing to use the latest drivers, square groove wedges, and golf balls though. A range finder lets the average player get the same information a pro player gets from his caddy. Range Finders speed up play in my experience which always a good thing. The player still needs to make the shot.... Scott

I have looked at a lot of cart bags recently and the best one I found was the Ogio Atlas. It is handsome, has enough pockets, and has room for 15 clubs all with full length dividers. The Atlas works well in push/pull carts as well as riding carts. After I received the Atlas, my wife liked it so much she had me order her one too. Scott
