Q Why do I need a reflector of any kind? Aren't laser rangefinders supposed to work right out of the box?
|
|
A All sporting lasers are Class I, as regulated by
the government for safety, regardless of their price. The difference in a low-end
model and it's high end brother is the unit's return signal receiver. The stronger
or more powerful the receiver, the more expensive the unit becomes. With a highly
reflective target, an inexpensive model will perform as well as an expensive unit.
Compare the two using a good reflective surface and you'll see there's little
difference.

Q Why can't I use reflective tape on the flagstick. Would this be the same as the RangePal?
|
|
A Our larger reflective surface mends quicker target
recognition. Holding the rangefinder steady is difficult under certain circumstances
and the more target surface available, the faster you get a distance reading. Also,
high grade reflective tape isn't cheap and for a few extra bucks, you get a well
designed, maintenance free, quality target that lasts for years.

Q Your reflector looks like plastic pipe and tape. Why should I pay your price for that?
|
|
A Good question, but it depends on your perspective, "is not the Mona Lisa
but paint smeared on canvas?". Seriously, there are a few other options but you'll find RangePal
reflectors to be a bargain by comparison.
|
|
Q Why should I purchase or recommend your reflectors instead of other target or reflector options?
|
|
A Simple design, inexpensive, excellent reflectivity,
easily installed without tools, doesn't require special flagsticks and works with
any make or model laser rangefinder, guaranteed.
|
|
Q Why haven't all courses gone to this or other types of reflective targets on their flagsticks?
|
|
A Could be the lack of understanding of the
technology, the problem and the simple solution. If all laser rangefinder users
expose the problem, maybe more course managers would be interested in addressing
the issue.

Why only "the front, center and back" approximate yardages with a GPS when
you can have the exact yardage to the pin with a laser rangefinder?
"Golf courses are beginning to provid reflectors on flagsticks
making it eaiser and quicker to measure distances using the laser technology."
