Practical golf takeaway

What matters most on the course

The Not published maximum range shows total laser reach, but there is no dependable published flag-range figure. That means you should not assume it can lock onto a flag at anything close to its headline maximum distance.

What do these distances mean on the course?

100 yd (91 m)Short approach

This distance is within its published maximum range. No dependable published flag range is available for comparison. This is common wedge territory.

200 yd (183 m)Typical approach

This distance is within its published maximum range. No dependable published flag range is available for comparison. This is a useful benchmark for longer approaches.

300 yd (274 m)Long flag test

This distance is within its published maximum range. No dependable published flag range is available for comparison. This is a demanding pin-lock distance for most golfers.

Its 1 yd (0.9 m) accuracy sits right on the common benchmark for a good golf laser.

Is the Laser range good?

There is not enough dependable published range data to grade the GOLFBUDDY Laser confidently.

Real-world range factors

Strong points

  • 1 yd (0.9 m) published accuracy meets the common golf-laser benchmark

What can reduce real range

  • Flagsticks are harder to range than large reflective objects
  • Rain, haze, glare, target reflectivity and shaky hands can reduce practical ranging performance

What to watch

  • Do not treat maximum range as the same thing as flag range
  • No dependable flag-range figure is published, so avoid assuming pin-lock performance from maximum range alone
