1.

It requires no manual dexterity or
visual acuity to operate.

2.

I can quickly get ranges to obstacles like trees, hazards, bunkers and ideal layup distance.

3.

I am never "between clubs". I have 3 numbers to choose from: front, middle or back. Into the wind, I choose the back distance. With the wind, I choose the front distance. That's about as accurate as my golf swing is anyway. So having belief in the yardage allows me to believe in the club and trust my swing.

4.

I like gizmos. Although no computer talent is really required, having an affinity for technology is a plus.

5.

I can track my score and putts.

6.

Since I don't wear a watch while playing, I have the time available to me as well as yardage.

7.

I have a pretty good idea of the shape of the green helping to decide the right line of approach.

1.

It works on any golf course, any driving range / practice center. I don't need to remember to download a new course to it before teeing off someplace new.

2.

It gives me the exact yardage (within a very small tolerance) to whatever target I choose. It is nice to know the exact yardage I need to hit a shot - not a front / middle / back set of distances, for example, like a GPS unit.

3.

Very simple to use - look through the viewfinder, select your target, and press a button - there's your yardage.

4.

Small and compact, fits easily in a small pocket in my golf bag.

5.

Works with batteries - don't need to remember to re-charge! You can leave in your golf bag after each round.

6.

Once you've bought it, there are no additional monthly fees, subscription charges, etc...
