Precision Pro Golf Nexus Features

The Precision Pro Golf Nexus is a most advanced and tournament legal golf laser rangefinder under $200 with many latest features that available in many of its higher-priced competitors. However, let’s look at the features in details to know what to expect in terms of reliability and performance,

• Advanced Target Lock Function

This device has Advanced Target Lock Function that filters out the background objects and provides an accurate distance to the flag only. When it locks on the pin, the flagstick icon starts to flash on the screen. So, it will give you the confidence that you have got the confirmed distance only to the flag. Even golfers with shaky hands can get accurate measurements as well using the target lock mode.

However, a few golfers have complained it sometimes focuses on the background items instead of the flag and therefore provides an inaccurate reading.

• Dynamic Scanning Mode

The Precision Pro Golf Nexus Laser Rangefinder has a dynamic scanning function that gives it the ability to scanning an area and providing accurate distance for multiple objects in quick succession. So, as a golfer, you know how helpful it is to choose the right golf club for your next shot if you know the exact distance of multiple objects around your target.

• Range and Accuracy

Precision Pro Golf Nexus golf rangefinder can measure distance accurately up to 400 yards with +/- 1 yard accuracy. It can consistently measure any flag, bunker, or tree in the golf course and ensures you will never be out of range of the target.

However, Nexus has a lower yard measurement range compared to more expensive lasers rangefinders like Tectectec Vpro Dlx and Saybien TR500. Nevertheless, it offers a high accuracy level that makes up for the limited yard measuring range. Moreover, the device also displays the measurements down to 1/10 of a yard. While this decimal figure measurement may seem pointless, but many golfers find it impressive who are looking for precise distances.

• 6X Magnification

It has 6x magnification feature to give a bright and clear view of your target. Therefore, zeroing on the flagstick from distances over 150 yards is now relatively easy because of its 6x magnification feature. Also, you can adjust the diopter eyepiece for the quick focus on the target according to your eye strength, and the viewing lens used in this rangefinder is 21mm.

However, some golfer found the viewing lens to be too small for them and preferred a bigger lens. Moreover, the clarity through the lens is not crystal clear compared to expensive rangefinders. Also, some users said that they could see the flag, but couldn’t read anything written on it.

• Easy of Use

Precision Pro Golf Nexus is very easy to use golf laser rangefinder. It has two simple buttons with two identifiable colors: Power and Mode. The green one is the “Power” button to turn on the rangefinder, and pushing it again will provide the desired target distance. The black one is the “Mode” button, which includes Dynamic scanning mode and Advanced Target Lock. Furthermore, if you hold the mode button, the reading switches from yards to meters on display. Also, it’s an ideal golf laser rangefinder for the golfers with shaky hands to get accurate measurements.

• Water Resistant

It’s a water resistance laser rangefinder but not fully waterproof. So, you might use it under light rain, but it would be wise not to use under heavy rain or harsh weather condition.

• Warranty

Precision Pro Golf Nexus golf laser rangefinder comes with 1 year warranty. Thus, if there are any operational malfunctions occur or found any manufacturer defects during the normal course of use, it will be replaced promptly. However, to get the warranty, you must register on the Precision Pro official website.
