Q&A: What is the best golf range finder?

QUESTION:
I golf the same ten courses for the most part in Northeast Wisconsin. Occasionally something new if I am on vacation or something. I am looking for a range finder that doesn’t need a lot of set up. What would be the easiest to use at a fair price?

I have a laser one. You can use it anywhere and no annual fees suchas with Skycaddies. Mine can be used on the flag or with the click of a button on an object. Skycaddies have to be preprogrammed for the course and not all course are available, plus in the winter any temporary greens make a Skycaddie useless. My range finder can be used off the golf course as well. A Skycaddie will not tell you how far to the pin, just front-middle-back. Plus, because the range finder of mine is more or less like binoculars, at a great distance where one is unsure if a shot landed short-on the green-or over, you can look through the finder and see the ball because of the magnification?
