Nikon’s stabilized rangefinder is a top-notch product.
Aimed at golfers looking for a vibration free and lightning quick measurement device, with an easy to read display, not to mention accuracy, which is specific to a laser rangefinder, and ease of use. The Nikon Coolshot Pro Stabilized Laser Rangefinder retails for $449 (MSRP) and it comes with the company’s proprietary Hyper Read technology. What’s that, you asked? Well, the CoolShot Pro Stabilized is capable of revealing yardages in a blink of an eye, or .3 seconds. Basically, as soon as you press the button, the exact yardage is displayed. The visuals are taken care of by a state of the art OLED display, which comes with a cool brightness adjustment feature. To use this baby is a child’s play: at the push of a button,you’ll be able to see easy to read numbers painted red on top of the target. That’s about it. Cut and dried. I’ve already told you about the ‘vibration fee’ thing. The Nikon Coolshot Pro Stabilized Laser Rangefinder uses locked-in technology instead of vibration, to announce its “master” when the target was locked-in.
Moreover, as its name suggest (the Stabilized particle), this laser rangefinder provides near-perfect yardages, while, in the same time, reducing those nasty vibrations produced by golfers with shaky hands, whether we’re talking about too much adrenaline, old age, cold weather or too much alcohol before the game. Kidding aside, the Nikon Coolshot Pro Stabilized Laser Rangefinder will be much appreciated by a large variety of golfers, both amateurs and pros alike, as its stabilized-technology is capable of reducing vibration by approximately 80 percent, and you can take that to the bank!
There’s also the hugely popular slope-functionality feature, which can be turned off at any time by a flick of a switch (via a button actually), in order for the CoolShot Pro to comply with USGA rules and regulations. So, even if you’re a Tour Pro, you can safely put your money on the Nikon Coolshot Pro Stabilized Laser Rangefinder if you’re looking for world-class yardages. As per tech specs, the CoolShot Pro comes with a high-quality 6x monocular with multilayer coating for bright, clear images, wide field of view (7.5 degrees), single or continuous measurement, distance measurement display step: 0.5m/yd., and dioptre adjustment function.
However, the most important feature of the Nikon Coolshot Pro Stabilized Laser Rangefinder is that its exterior has an actual distance indicator, compared to other products on the market, which require changing out face-plates.
Finally, this state of the art laser rangefinder is boasting a compact body design, which makes it very comfy in your hands, and it’s both fog-proof and water-proof, i.e. you can use it anytime, anywhere, as long as it’s within temperature tolerance (-10°C to +50°C/14°F to 122°F).
