Sign up Closed: Vortex Rangefinders

Looking forward to the Vortex test, currently use a GPS and have thought about a rangefinder but have never got one.  

 

Big fan of Vortex. I use them for optics during hunting. Interested to see how this test pans out.

San Antonio senior golf secretary here, golf group just returned from VEGAS! Lost my rangefinder!

I would love to test one of these.

As always great testing opportunities!

I know vortex makes great optics and I currently use a hunting one(Kilo1000 5x22mm)for golf. I would love to try a golf vortex rangefinder rather than a hunting one!

I currently use a hunting rangefinder from vortex(kilo1000 5x22) and I would love to give the golf rangefinder a try! 

Good luck to everyone who applies! Such an underrated tool to build a great round. 

I would love to test another quality rangefinder. Right now I’m using a leupold which is also a hunting/rangefinder company.

Sweet test! I happened to see one of these in the wild last week on the course. Looking forward to the community call today for more info from Vortex!

 

currently I am using a GoGo V Sport rangefinder with slope on the course paired with my Blue Tees Player+ speaker and GPS Range that gives me yardage to the front/middle/back. My rangefinder has gotten a little iffy over the last few months (no it isn’t batteries, I tried that) so the Player + helps a ton to give me confidence in my number. 

I use Roundabout Golf app for AI shot tracking. Anyone else use this app?

Best of luck everybody

I currently use a combination of a Bushnell Tour V3 Jolt and Garmin Watch for measuring hazards/layups/shot tracking.

I’ve been looking at these! I currently use the Blue Tees 3 max+.

Good luck everyone!

I've been using Laser Rangefinders for a long time, probably 10+ years.  I've tried Bushnell, Nikon, Leupold and Callaway.  

My current model is Bushnell Pro C2 Slope Edition.  This one attracted me because of the ability to change from black letters/numbers in the viewfinder to RED LETTERS/NUMBERS IN THE VIEWFINDER, which makes the display information very easy to see.

This model gives you a buzz when locking in on the target.  It also has "slope" information, which is a great tool for learning how to estimate a slope's effect on your overall distance.

I have only lost one Laser Rangefinder in 10 years and that was within 5-10 minutes from taking my bag off the golf cart and forgetting to un-stick the magnetic sleeve on my rangefinder from the golf cart roof support. That was a $everal hundred dollar mi$take that I will never forget nor repeat.

I think that a good dependable laser rangefinder is a valuable piece of your golf equipment and should be carefully researched before purchasing.

Would be a great opportunity to test another different company’s range finder to see how it matches up!

Awesome, thanks for the opportunity. I've used Vortex weapon sights for years and they are great.

I too forgot it once on the cart. Now, when I stick my magnetic rangefinder on the cart, I always put my car keys in the rangefinder case. Haven't forgotten it since!

Mentioned before in other threads, my Voice Caddy doesn't hold a charge for a full round anymore, so I've been looking around.  Have the original V1 version.  In the interim, I've been using the GPS on the GHIN app (free version, not with green reading), but very interested in testing our a range finder.

This rangefinder would not only be a nice improvement to my golf gear, but would also go great with my Vortex Crossfire II scope on my 6.5 Creedmoor 

The product looks great. I’ve been using the SwingU app for years. I’d love to test a range finder to see if it makes a difference. 

Huge fan of Vortex.  I use their optics for hunting (binoculars and scope).  High quality offerings, and an exceptional warranty program.  Actually just tried out one of their golf polos and was very impressed.  If only they were able to come out with a combined hunting/golfing rangefinder... that would truly be something.

Love vortex! Their binoculars are great, would love to try their rangefinders!

‍  Would love to test the Anarch! I have shaky hands so finding a rangefinder is tricky. The image stabilization would certainly assist me significantly. I have several others to compare it too as well.

this is a cool opportunity! I have a few of their other optics, its great to see them break into the golf space with a new range finder. Good Luck everyone!
