Leupold GX-II Rangefinder Pinhunter Review

Consumer Report
Leupold Golf GX-II Laser Rangefinder The Leupold Golf GX-II is a high end rangefinder for the serious golfer. It has many innovative features, including slope calculations to give precise distances on uphill or downhill holes; unfortunately these advantages make it legal only for practice rounds.

Premium features include:

Pinhunter – technology to make targeting the flag much easier.

Quick Set Menu – no fussing with the controls, click the button.

Scan Mode – capable of distancing different targets in succession

Inclinometer & True Golf Range (TGR) – The Leupold® GX™-II compensates for uphill shots that play long and downhill shots that play short.

Club Selector – Factoring your specific striking distance, automatically recommends the appropriate club for each shot

Temperature & Altitude – has settings for factoring temp and alt, to ensure the ultimate in accuracy of your shots. (Input of temp and alt is manual.)

The feature set is unparalleled in a rangefinder. Non other on the market offers temperature calibration and pin selection.

Leupold Golf GX-II Laser Rangefinder Reviews, Overview and User Feedback

Rating:

8.5 / 10

Actual Customer Feedback:

“The Leupold is the only one I believe that you can input your distances by club and it will tell you which club to hit.

I haven’t read of any Bushnell’s that do that.”

“The Leupold GX-II is unbelievable. Can’t recommend it enough. Point at stick and click. Nice crosshair in the display.

The bells and whistles are cool too. It will suggest a club and adjust for uphill/downhill, how hot or cold it is and what altitude you are playing at.

I am aware about the “illegality” of those adjustments, but most of the golf I play is for fun with buddies who are happy to share the info. I will keep the old Bushnell in case I play in some sort of outside tourney.”

Our Research on Leupold Golf GX-II Laser Rangefinder Suggests:

Besides the user reviews, which were limited in number, the only factor we can base our rating on are the extremely cool features that are included and the reputation of the Leupold optics company, which is steller.

The True Golf Range feature is a great tool for practice: “For example, if you have a lie 150 yards from the pin, but the green falls 6 degrees above your ball, advanced TGR algorithms automatically account for each factor, indicating you should play the shot as if it were 164 yards.”

Verdict:

Based on company reputation and user reviews of their non-golf products, and the advanced and well thought out features, we gave the Leupold Golf GX-II a rating of 8.5/10.
