Leica Pinmaster II

The Pinmaster II from Leica, with a snappy white surface and black trim, provides a critical edge by measuring the distance to your next pin on the links. A 7x24 monocular that ranges distances up to 825 yards, it features First Target Logic, which was developed specifically for the golf range. It will display the closer target instead of a farther target so that the golf flag will be ranged, rather than the bushes beyond it. It can be set to calculate the distance to a stationary target, or switched to its scanning mode to track moving objects. Its start-up time is a quick 0.5 seconds.

The Pinmaster II's housing is crafted from carbon-fiber reinforced plastic that's submersible to 3.2 feet. Its compact form-factor allows it to slip into most pockets easily, while its light weight of less than 1/2 pound allows it to be comfortably carried for the whole 18 holes. An adjustable ocular with a comfortable rubber eyecup offers a generous amount of eye relief and accurate focusing that accommodates eye/sunglass wearers. The easy-to-read red LED display is bright, tack sharp, and it can be set to display its measurements in yards or meters.
