Barska Blueline 8x22 Waterproof Golf Scope (Yards)
|
Very cheaply made not worth the price. Jul 16, 2009
I bought this and found it to be extremely cheaply made and not water proof at all, I would not recommend buying this unless you are looking to waste money on such a poorly made item not even good enough for a gift.
Get what you pay for Apr 16, 2009
rather than spending an extra $10, I bought this one. useless. maybe it's just the one I got, but it's blurry. I had one (that was left in a cart) that I used to find my ball more than for distances, but this one can't focus on anything. you get what you pay for.
Should have listened to bad review of golf scopes Jan 12, 2009
Can not reliably use the golf scope to estimate the yardage since it is impossible for me to hold it steady. I should have listened to bad review of this product. Wish I could return it except my children broke it while they were playing with this.
Takes a steady hand Feb 23, 2008
This scope is what it is, a small, graduated monocular. You must hold it steady to use it effectively. It should be used to augment your distance estimates, in addition to course markers, etc. You don't get sophistication at this price. For beginning golfers, it's better than a wag!
Unpractical, unusuable Jan 16, 2008
This item looks good on paper but in practice is quite unusable. In order to have a workable yardage reading from which to select a club, it is necessary to hold the scope absolutely rock solid while sighting on the green pin. This is an impossible task. While the manufacturer acknowledges that the reading is approximate, "approximate" takes on whole new meaning with this scope. Readings are easily + or - 20 yards. Compared with this size of an error, my eyeball does equally as good a job.
