Using a rangefinder is a near necessity nowadays. Rangefinders can be found at your weekly four-ball, junior golf, and all the way up to the PGA and LPGA tours.
Knowing your yardage is an essential part of getting better. The difference between thinking you should hit a 7 iron and knowing you should is huge. It could even be the difference between breaking 80 and hanging your head after yet another 85.
Golfweek is here to help push your game in the right direction. Whether it be putting, fitness or anything in between, we have exactly what you need to hit your goals.

Garmin – Approach Z82 (GlobalGolf)
Price: $600
Why we love it: The GPS giant tried their hand at rangefinders and have found good success. Featuring vibration when locked on, what sets the Approach Z82 apart from others is its ability to tell where and how hard the wind is blowing.
Callaway Hybrid Laser/GPS Rangefinder (PGA Tour Superstore)
Price: $320
Why we love it: Unlike that tricky hybrid you have in your bag, this Callaway Hybrid rangefinder is easy to use. Providing GPS data below the viewfinder, you’re getting accurate numbers even if you’re hitting a blind shot.
Leupold – GX-3i 3 Rangefinder (PGA Tour Superstore)
Price: $400
Why we love it: Arguably the best in the business, Leupold is known for their attention to details. This model, however, does not come with slope technology, which if you’re playing lots of tournament golf can give you a sigh of relief.
Callaway – EZ (GlobalGolf)
Price: $300
Why we love it: The Callaway EZ rangefinder is as advertised. Easy to use, the rangefinder provides a larger LCD screen to reassure the number projected in the viewfinder. If you’re in the market for a rangefinder but have trouble reading small print, this is a good buy for you.
