Or get a magnetic belt holster for my rangefinder

i can’t imagine playing with a phone in my pocket. rangefinder is ok but ljl at having it on your belt when playing your shots.

are you in a cart on path only courses? i can’t stand that shit

Yeah like 80% of the time I have to walk away from the cart and leave my phone/rangefinder so I won't forget them

Wearing a watch seems either perfect or really annoying

I prefer Shot Scope on my belt. A few of my friends prefer the watches, but I don’t want anything on my wrists when golfing.

Get a bushnell gps that attaches to the cart. You aren’t good enough to need a rangefinder. Watch I guess is fine too if you don’t mind playing with a watch on your wrist.

How can someone be good enough for a GPS but not range finder

And every cart has GPS now. That doesn't solve the problem at all

Lol

range finder takes way more effort and slows down your round for minimal gain even for good players, which you are not. I haven't seen a cart with a gps screen in a long time, though they were common like 15 years ago. everyone uses some combination of portable gps, range finder, or phone now so clubs don't waste $ on the screens any more.

I agree there are issues using a range finder, that's why I made this thread.

But every golfer should know how far their ball is from the flag (or layup target) before swinging. Even the worst one on the course.

I agree. that's why I said to get a regular GPS or if you are playing at courses with it built into the cart just use that or wear a watch if you don't mind wearing one and kind of looking like a fag.

Watch is good enough and less distracting than a phone in your pocket IME. One of the ones that automatically records your shot locations and with scoring is handy for tracking your game. I don't really feel I'm good enough to need to precision of a range finder, and the range finder setting that adjusts for elevation is kind of cheating.

It should be illegal to use a range finder on the green. They all have the slope thing now but never seen a single person use it for putting

I mean for elevated par 3s and the like. You're not allowed to use the slope adjustment for tournament play I believe.
