When is Black Friday
Black Friday in 2025 takes place on Friday 28th November. However, companies have already started introducing offers to the market, with lots of golf gear available at reduced prices. This isn't just on smaller brands you might not have heard of either, no, we have spotted good rangefinder deals on models from Bushnell, Garmin, Nikon and other big-hitters. Along with Black Friday on the 28th, there is also Cyber Monday on 1st December, which is another great opportunity to purchase gifts for Christmas, or for yourself.
How to choose the Best Golf Rangefinder
So you have decided you want a rangefinder, but what are some of the things you should be aware of before buying? Let's take a look.
Accuracy
Accuracy is important - it's likely the main reason we're looking to purchase one of these rangefinders. Cheaper models off the likes of Amazon or eBay can be tempting given the price, but the reliability of the yardages they're telling you can be questionable. Cheaper models in this guide are more than adequate but can sometimes be a yard or two off, whereas the expensive models will likely be spot on. They can also incorporate slope into proceedings. If you want that sort of thing, it could be worth spending that little bit extra.
Battery Life
There is truly not many things worse than when you pull out your rangefinder midway through your round, press the button and no display pops up. Damn, it's out of battery...
We have found most rangefinders run on CR2 batteries which last 6-12 months, and are often rechargeable which is good value. Additionally you can also buy these on Amazon too.
Finally, make sure that the rangefinder you’re interested in doesn’t require an unusual type of battery that is expensive or difficult to source.
Range
Range shouldn't matter too much on the golf course - we doubt you'll need a specific yardage for something over 300 yards away. However, if you need a rangefinder for another sport or hobby like birdwatching or hunting, this is worth keeping in mind.
Display
How clear is the display and how easy is it to read? Ultimately because we have tested most rangefinders on the market we think we can give good insight here with some models offering outstandingly clear visuals. There are also several other models on this list that have good displays so be sure to have a read of our in-depth reviews as well. Ultimately a good model should have clear, bright optics, magnification, and an easy to read display when contrasted with the background.
Slope
Do you want your model to offer slope measurements too? If so check out the technical specifications of certain models. Always be careful here though, because if a model is not clear on whether it is in slope mode or not, if you use it in competition you could be in trouble.
Waterproofing
A good model will work just as well in the rain as it will in the sun, which makes waterproofing important. Here we would recommend doing research on which models offer full waterproof protection, and those that are only water-resistant as that can be a big difference especially if you play a lot of golf in the rain.
Strength
Linking with the above point, good rangefinders have to be able to sustain a drop or two because we all drop things every now and again. Here, check out which models have some degree of impact resistance, and be sure to check if the laser comes with a case because lots of models come with strong cases that conveniently clip onto your golf bag now.
Convenience
Speaking of convenience, rangefinders have to be quick and easy to use. Get it out, measure the flag, put it away in its case. If a laser is complicated or takes a while to display a measurement, then it adds time rather than saves it. To work this out, we would often recommend trying out some models in retailers and pro shops.
Looks
Admittedly this is not as important as other factors we mentioned above, but at the end of the day you should like the look of your rangefinder as well because nobody wants some big, bulky, ugly thing attached to the bag right? As such there are loads of different designs and cool finishes out there ranging from the ultra-premium (Voice Caddie SL2) to the more simple designs like the TecTecTec KLYR. Of course there are lots of different colors to choose from as well.
Magnetic Mount
Do you want your rangefinder to have magnetic elements so you can just attach it to your cart rather than having to take it out of its case all the time? If so then there are models out there that have technologies to make this possible - two of the best are the Bushnell Tour V5 and Bushnell Tour XE. Precision Pro also makes several models with this design feature.
Budget
Be aware of how much you are willing to spend on a laser because there are good models at every price point these days. For example the Inesis 900 is one of the cheapest on this guide and we thought it offered excellent performance, whereas if you want to spend more and go towards the premium end of the spectrum, you can also do that with models like the Garmin Approach Z82.
Where to find the best deals
In the US, some of the best golf retailers include PGA TOUR Superstore, Rock Bottom Golf, Walmart and, of course, Amazon. In the UK, the best golf retailers include Scottsdale Golf, American Golf, Sports Direct and Amazon.
Amazon can be tricky to navigate (check out our best Amazon Black Friday golf deals) but they're a fantastic retailer for golf watches, lasers and balls in particular. Other retailers to keep an eye on are the brands themselves so Nike, adidas , Puma and Under Armour.
