Product Information

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. You also get a Caddy Mode, significant battery life, water-resistance and put simply, we’ve never tested a rangefinder with so many features, on a unit that is so compact. If precision is what is desired above all else, Cleveland is offering a new Accuracy Build, a custom configuration that is half an inch shorter without counterbalancing to focus on maximum control. Much like the Wilson Launch Pad, this iron is noticeably easy to swing fast and each good distance and accuracy. Plus, it comes in less expensive than many other leading models. The Rife RX7 iron set includes irons 5-SW. However, periphery options are limited. It is only available as a right-handed set with a steel shaft in regular flex. Performance Although their use is banned at many professional tournaments, most top amateurs include a rangefinder in their golf bag as a point of necessity, and it’s easy to see why. They’re also a more-than-handy tool on the practice range where you can use them to calculate the distance you strike with each of your clubs.

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. The Rife RX5 golf club set consists of a 460cc driver, a 3-wood, 4H, 5H, irons 6-SW, semi-mallet putter and a stand bag. The set also includes head covers for the woods and the hybrids. Performance Generally with golf clubs you get what you pay for although some less expensive irons, like the ones featured in this guide, will perform admirably - especially if you don't take your game too seriously. In terms of value for money, we think the Wilson Launch Pad 2022, Tour Edge Exotics C722 and Cleveland Launcher XL irons offer some of the best on the market right now. What clubs should beginner golfers play with? In Pin mode, the main reading that it gives you is the one that's been calculated with the Slope so below it will tell the actual distance and how much it's playing up or downhill. All distances come in yards and are even given in decimal places which is some level of detail. There's also a PlaysLike Distance feature that accounts for slopes and also a Pin Pointer feature, which points to the middle of the green on blind shots. This is undoubtedly one of the very best golf rangefinders you can buy. While it's premium priced, the user experience is second to none and the way GPS technology and hole maps have been incorporated into a rangefinder is extremely impressive.

Other features include a Scan mode, where you hold down the main button and scan the surroundings - the distance changing as you do so, which we found useful when assessing what lies ahead off the tee. There’s also a new Pin Finder mode, which is automatically employed when you press and hold the measurement button when not in Scan mode. Finally it is IPX4 water resistant, which should keep light showers at bay. After a couple of years, Guerin Rife sold Rife Golf to International Leisure Group Limited which has bought out a number of small golf manufacturing companies.

I tested a handful of them to find out. But first let’s take a look at the story of Rife Golf. A Brief History of Rife Golf The Q-6 Slope rangefinder from Cobalt Golf is an impressive device on a number of levels. In our testing, it provided some of the most exceptional display optics we've seen from a rangefinder, while also offering impressive speed and accuracy in terms of capturing distances. It also looks sharp visually and, when in hand, offers a sturdy, durable feel that is the result of its quality construction. At a basic level, a decent rangefinder should do exactly what it says on the tin: accurately measure the distance between you and the pin. Even the cheapest rangefinders are mostly accurate to within one yard, and have a range of around 500 yards – longer than most holes on your local course. As the price point increases, so does the number of features you can expect to find. Keep an eye out for rangefinders that include water-resistant materials, displays of varying quality, slope functions, vibration-reduction technology and more. Which brands are best? The RX4 Graphite irons are ideal for beginners who, in particular, are struggling to get the ball airborne.All golf irons goes through a thorough and comprehensive testing process at Golf Monthly. Before testing, the Golf Monthly team will usually attend product launches and meet with the manufacturers' R&D experts to understand the new technology. Usually, when it comes to hitting the clubs, we use an indoor simulator at Foresight Sports so we can hit in a controlled environment using premium balls and a quality, reputable launch monitor. If you want a truly unique rangefinder, then the Cube from CaddyTalk is a model to consider as we were bowled over by it in testing. First the device itself is notably lightweight (140g) and compact versus most other rangefinders plus it’s very boxy and industrial in its looks as you can see above. Game improvement irons tend to have larger heads, more offset and are designed to help players who struggle with strike and distance. They tend to have large cavities and different pieces of technology to help in this regard. As such if you are a senior player who values greater feel and workability then we recommend looking elsewhere - at the best golf blade ironsor best compact mid-handicap ironsfor example.

The original Laser Lite was arguably the leading choice among the best budget golf rangefindersgiven the features and accuracy on offer. Its replacement, the Laser Lite 2, claims to offer an even better experience. For starters, it’s three grams lighter, which means it accentuates that lightweight feel many golfers like, and it is also thinner and a little more compact, which we definitely noticed. We think laser rangefinders are definitely worth it. They save a lot of time, last a long time, are convenient and simple to use, offer in-depth detail of the shot you face, and can sit easily on your golf bag. With a laser no longer do you have to find a sprinkler, or guess yardages because you can simply zap the flag or hazards to help you plot your way around the course. Should my device offer slope measurements? The hybrids blend in well with oversize irons. The hybrids are slightly more forgiving than the fairway wood and driver and are a much better option for beginner golfers who are used to old-fashioned 3 and 4 irons. They are 2-piece hollow body irons which allows the face to flex a lot. I was getting really fast ball speeds and as a result, excellent distance – an average of 156.1 yards of carry with the 7-iron. Who is it for? They built on their putter’s success by branching out into golf apparel, accessories and other clubs.The hybrids are a nice bridge between the fairway wood and the large irons. They are exceptionally forgiving and produce a mid trajectory. As our other equipment guides have proven, we have become fans of Inesis gear of late and the same can be said of this rangefinder. Not only is it competitively priced, but this unit boasts a Slope Compensation switch so you can toggle on and off slope-adjusted distances. A rangefinder is designed to give you as accurate yardages as possible. Nobody wants to be out on the course and have no idea what distance a bunker or ditch is. Therefore, a rangefinder can help acquire yardages and build confidence. How accurate are laser rangefinders?

Accuracy will be dependent on the model as some are better than others but we have found from our testing that most are accurate enough to give you a clearer yardage, which will then inform which club to use. Are golf laser rangefinders worth it? The Rife RX2 golf club set would be a great choice for new players who have been taking lessons and are ready to get out on the course. Pros & Cons Pros:The irons have an oversized profile with a healthy undercut. This helps them launch the ball high and the long blade length provides a lot of lateral forgiveness. Their 2Bar putter was a smashing success and featured this innovative groove technology. Their putters were played on the PGA Tour.
