So, which should you choose?

The best rangefinders

Golf GPS rangefinders use signals from various satellites to figure out the distance between you and your target, whereas a laser rangefinder uses a laser beam to determine the same distance.

Generally, GPS rangefinders are deemed the fastest, but laser rangefinders are much more accurate.

Here at Clarkes’ Golf Centre, we provide a selection of rangefinders – both GPS and laser models – from well-known brands including Bushnell, SkyCaddie, and Zoom.

Over the years, the technology in laser and GPS rangefinders has advanced significantly, providing more accuracy than any other GPS device on the market. In fact, every major rangefinder is accurate within a yard, with some promising accuracy to the half (or even tenth) of a yard!

Another great thing about rangefinders is that they are portable. These handy little gadgets can be used anywhere on the golf course, and they’re lightweight. This means they’re easy to transport from one hole to the next.

As with all the products we stock here at Clarkes’ Golf, our golf GPS rangefinders and laser models are priced extremely competitively. We’re confident you’ll find something suitable for your budget on our website. 

Choosing between a laser rangefinder and a GPS rangefinder

Deciding between a laser rangefinder and a GPS one can be challenging – especially when both have their pros and cons. However, our team will be more than happy to guide and advise you to ensure you make an informed decision.

Golf GPS rangefinders are a handheld version of golf GPS watches, featuring a slightly larger HD touch screen.

Although laser rangefinders are just as convenient and easy to carry as their GPS counterparts, these mimic the size of a small camcorder and can often be worn around the wrist. Most come with a compact carry case too, which enables you to keep them safe when they aren’t in use.

To determine which is best for your game and budget, speak with the team at Clarkes’ Golf Centre today. We will take into consideration your exact requirements and assist you in selecting the most suitable device.
