Amazon.com Product Description There's nothing quite as frustrating as hitting your club perfectly only to see the ball fall 30 yards short of the green. Enter the Callaway LR550 laser rangefinder, which quickly and accurately measures the yardstick from up to 550 yards away. The LR550, which comes in a striking yellow case, offers multiple range-finding modes for your convenience. The first target mode, for example, displays the range to the nearest target--useful when measuring the distance to a pin on the green with woods in the background. The rangefinder also boasts a continuous mode that ranges multiple targets in succession for up to eight seconds, so you can determine whether you have the right club to clear the sand trap or water hazard. Plus, targeting an object couldn't be easier thanks to the built-in reticle and LCD display, which combine to tell you when ranging is in progress. The LR550 is also noteworthy from an optical perspective. The rangefinder's 6x monocular, for example, offers such features as multicoated optics, long eye relief (with a folding rubber eyecup for eyeglass wearers), and a waterproof, nitrogen-sealed housing. The LR550--which runs on a CR2 3-volt lithium battery (included)--comes with a carabiner for easy access and a matching yellow neoprene sport sleeve with a removable travel cover.

| Customer Reviews: rangefinder January 9, 2010 Jim (Bannockburn, IL USA) The Calloway Rangefinder is easy to use. It picks up the desired target well. You know you are locked on the right target when you hit the button. The yellow case is helpful in that you see it in the cart (or your bag) and you don't tend to leave it behind.
Callaway LR550 Laser Range Finder August 14, 2009 F. Mendez (Jacksonville, FL) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This range finder has been a joy and easy to use. The eight second active mode makes verifying the target a snap and the display is as easy to read as any range finder I've used. My friends recommendation of the yellow was spot on because it makes leaving it in the cart near impossible. Lastly the waterproof feature (only one in the price range I saw) allows you to not worry about those occasional showers. I recommend it to everyone I play with!
Not perfect but good August 11, 2009 Svein Helge Grinden (Løvenstad, Norway) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Laser Rangefinder works almost perfect. The only thing I found that could be better is the number color. In my opinion I think it should be possible to change the color of the numbers presented. If you have dark background you don't see the numbers. So if it was possible to show numbers in orange for example I think that would be better.
One other thing that might be a little problem for some people is that you need to keep it pretty steady to get a correct reading for distances over 150 meters.
