Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 Review

Being one of the most expensive rangefinder on the market, the Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 review had high expectations. After all, it should clearly outperform most other rangefinders in lesser price brackets in order to be a worthwhile investment for golfers. Also, as the flagship rangefinder of the entire Callaway line, it was quite literally designed to be that something special.

In some ways, it does stand out, but in other aspects, the Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 review found otherwise.

Highly Accurate and Simple to Use

Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 Review

Normally, the name Callaway is more associated with golf clubs than rangefinders, and in order to bring more to the table, Callaway teamed up with Nikon for the laser rangefinder technology that it uses. In this respect, it does not disappoint, and is able to offer a 0.5 yard (give or take) accuracy at mid-range distances that is higher than any other rangefinder.

On top of that, the Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 review was amazed at its simple 'one touch' concept that allows for quick and easy usage. Instead of fussing over the controls of a rangefinder while preparing for a shot, the LR1200 seamlessly would measure distance with a single click.

Unfavorable Comparisons

Inevitably, the question had to be asked during the Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 review as to how it stands up against other rangefinders, particularly the benchmark that is Bushnell. Although Callaway has employed a First Target Priority mode, that is supposed to more easily pick out the flag against a background of trees, many have expressed that it does not match the Bushnell's Pinseeker technology.

Furthermore, its range limit of 1,100 yards is slightly less than other top-of-the-line rangefinders, which causes many a Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 review to express dismay in its performance.

When all is said and done, it is a very useful rangefinder, with great technology that also includes a Scan mode, and 7x magnifications. But, for such an expensive model, the Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 is always bound to be measured to a higher standard, and in this, it does disappoint slightly.

Still, it does have its advantages, and processes distance much faster than other rangefinders. So, if targeting is not an issue, with a combination of the one touch usage and faster processing, a golfer would be able to get his readings in a fraction of the time that it would take when using other models.

Essentially, it boils down to a judgment call, but the Callaway Rangefinder LR1200 review would suggest that the model is no slouch, but could be better.
