BUSHNELL PINSEEKER 1500 RANGEFINDER SLOPE EDITION

BUSHNELL PINSEEKER 1500 RANGEFINDER SLOPE EDITION

Bushnell laser rangefinders have changed the way golfers assess distances, ultimately improving performance and speeding up play. Bushnell, the number one choice of professional golfers and caddies, offers a full range of laser rangefinders. The new Bushnell PinSeeker was specifically designed for golf and with its unique selective targeting mode, locating the flag has never been easier. The Bushnell PinSeeker can also provide distance to carry hazards or distance to a bunker with a simple shoot and click.

Measure from ball to pin, not ball to pine. The secret to a good round of golf is making accurate shots – not easy when the pin is competing with the trees around it for your rangefinder’s attention. Next time, pack along the new Bushnell PinSeeker®. It’s accurate to +/- one yard from 5 to 1,500 yards away and will range directly to the flag, not the objects behind it. With two Selective Targeting modes, you’ll get the shot you’re looking for, every time – no worries, hazards or mulligans necessary.

Bushnel Pinseeker 1500 Laser Rangefinder features built in slope:

Although the distance ranged at 125 yards, the 7 degree incline in elevation makes the shot play like 136 yards. The PinSeeker 1500 with Slope +/- shows compensated distance through the rangefinder, taking the guess work out of changes in elevation.

TECHNOLOGY

A. Targeting Modes

Scan: Allows you to pan across the landscape while viewing a continuously updated LCD display of the distances between you and the targets you scan with the viewfinder.

Rain: Compensates for precipitation to guarantee an accurate distance measurement through rain or snow.

Zip: Accurately measure longer ranges (beyond 150 yards) when looking through foreground clutter like brush or branches.

Reflector: Increases the maximum measurement range for most highly reflective objects.

B. Meters/Yards: Quickly choose between these standard measuring units with a simple press of a button.

C. Reticle: The distance to objects targeted in these crosshairs will be displayed on the Distance Readout with the press of a button.

D. Battery Indicator: Flashes when battery power is low.

E. Target Quality Gauge: Indicates amount of energy pulses The distance to objects targeted in these  being received back from the target.

How a Laser Rangefinder Works
Bushnell's Yardage Pro rangefinders use an invisible, eye-safe Class 1 Laser beam (as classified by the FDA) which is "bounced" off distant objects with the press of a button. Then, the rangefinder's high-speed digital clock measures the time it took for a laser beam to reach a target and return to the unit. Next, using advanced digital electronics, the rangefinder instantly calculates the distance within + / – 1 yard and shows the range in either yards or meters on a through-the-lens LCD Display. The entire process is so fast that less than a second elapses between the time you press the button to generate a laser beam to the time the exact range to your target is displayed.

Reflectivity of Target Types
Because rangefinders "bounce" a laser beam off the target in order to take a measurement, their range is partially determined by the reflectivity of the target. In other words, hard or "reflective" targets – like a rock cliff or semi-truck – can be measured at greater distances than soft surface targets – like a deer. Ranges for moderately reflective targets, like trees, fall somewhere in the middle. Most experienced hunters will use their rangefinder to frequently estimate ranges to near and distant landmarks before they actually encounter a game animal. By "pre-measuring" ranges to spots where a trophy is likely to appear, they can concentrate on making an accurate shot when the moment of truth arrives.
