Nikon CoolShot 80 VR Golf Laser Rangefinder, NICS80VRGLR

Nikon 16206 Overview

Nikon designed the CoolShot 80 VR Golf Laser Rangefinder to alleviate the effect of external vibrations, so you’ll get an accurate measurement every time.

This rangefinder features the proprietary Hyper Read algorithm to deliver fast and stable measurements regardless of the distance to the target, and First Target Priority mode with Locked On display that automatically shows the distance to the closest target sighted when overlapping subjects are viewed. You can press and hold the power button for up to 8 seconds to measure multiple or very small or thin objects, allowing you to know the distances to hazards, pins, mounds, and trees.

The CoolShot has a measurement accuracy of ±0.75 yd/m up to 700 yards/meters and ±1.25 yd/m beyond that. It displays the distance in 0.5 yd/m increments, and is displayed within 0.5 seconds.

The 6x magnification is suitable for identifying targets at mid-range distances and a long eye relief helps eyeglass wearers use it comfortably. Information is displayed in an in-view display and an auto-off function saves battery life. Weatherproof construction, a wide temperature tolerance, and one-touch activation make this rangefinder a full-featured device for your golf game.
