Gogogo Sport Vpro 900 Yard Camo Laser Rangefinder for Hunting/Bow Hunting/Archery Hunting, Horizontal Distance Mode Compact Lightweight Hunting Range Finder

Range is accurate. Set up is easy. Compact enough to carry in pouch. I’m happy with it.

This is a neat, lightweight, pocket-sized laser rangefinder that displays actual and horizontal distance to a target, supposedly out to 900 yards. This is a particularly handy feature if you are hunting from an elevated stand as it allows you to quickly make any needed angular corrections to trajectory. I tested it on several different targets at known distances and found it to be repeatably and acceptably accurate (+/- ~1%). The display is large and easy to read although it is not illuminated in any way, so you are out of luck in darkness.It offers a monocular view with a listed 6X magnification and is equipped with a diopter for personal eyesight adjustment. I found the optics to be bright and acceptably clear with only a little distortion around the edges, so this is perfectly acceptable for hunting. It's not anything like high quality binoculars but then it really doesn't have to be. There is even a threaded insert in the bottom for use with a tripod, so in a pinch you could even use this as a makeshift spotting scope.The operation is simple. A push of the power button turns the unit on, and a second push activates the ranging operation, with instant display. It also offers a mode selection button so that you could use this on the golf course, but I wasn't really interested in that. The buttons are adequately sized to be used with gloves.The unit comes in a nice carrying case with a 2 1/2" wide belt loop on the back and they even furnished a small, lightweight carabiner if you want to hook it on a belt loop or pack. The case is made of a green woven denier nylon material and closes using a magnetic clasp. It even has a small mesh pocket on the side, ostensibly for carrying extra batteries, which is where I eventually found the supplied battery.The only real problem with this unit is the battery. First, it uses a single type CR2 battery which are not commonly found and can be expensive. Although it does come with a battery, I have no idea of the longevity (the display does not feature a battery life indicator, which would have been a welcome feature) so an extra battery or two would be essential if you plan to use this unit regularly. Second is the installation of the battery itself - it was a real pain. A small, printed insert in the battery compartment indicated to angle the base of the battery at about 25 degrees and press it into place. This simply did not work for me and only succeeded in bending the battery tension spring. After a number of frustrating attempts, I finally used a thin metal fingernail file to compress the tension spring, which eventually allowed successful installation. The battery compartment is very small (as is the battery) and there's just not enough space to do this easily. While I realize that this was likely done to keep the overall size of the unit as small as possible, there are easier ways to accomplish this and make battery installation less of a hassle.In summary, with the exception of the problematic battery and its installation and the lack of any illumination in the display, this is a great hunting tool. It can easily fit in a shirt pocket and provides good magnification viewing and accurate ranging data to help make your hunting trip a success.

Ordered one pair didn’t work. Send it back swapped it out. Got another pair. Same thing didn’t work so pretty junkie.

I've tried this in several cases and by rough measure on GPS, the readings are pretty accurate I have not physically measured to verify the accuracy. It has a function most useful for golf included, but I haven't needed that. overall very nice for an affordable item

This review is for the Gogogo Sport Vpro 900 Yard Camo Laser Rangefinder for Hunting/Bow Hunting/Archery (and golf)This is a nice light weight compact laser rangefinder with a camo design. It has 2 different modes - depending if you are a hunter or just wanted some extra help on the golf course (they call it flag mode). It comes with a small CR2 battery that was stored in the mesh pocket of the carrying case. Inserting it into the actual rangefinder is a little bit tricky since there is not a lot of clearance in the battery area but very doable .In the "hunter mode" you can scan and get real time estimates of the yardage of distant objects or you can also lock in the measurement. Note that this only will display measurements in yards - it would have been nice to be able to also select meters and/or feet. This device allows for the angular measuring of objects so that you can get the actual and horizontal distance to your target. This is useful if you are in an elevated area (ie. in a tree blind or building) The display is relatively easy to read although it is not illuminated in any way, so you might have trouble in darkness. It would have been nice if they had a backlit display option when it is very dark outside.When pointed towards a golf flag the golf option scans the area and returns the closest measurement it finds (hopefully the golf flag). I wasn't able to test this on a golf course but it seemed to work in my backyard.Overall I'm glad I got this range finder and I'm sure it will be quite useful next time I use it.

I wanted this rangefinder mainly for hunting. That being said, I think this unit could use a few improvements when being used for hunting. Mainly the issue is the performance in low light situations. If you are only using this for bright situations, I think it will serve its purpose. However, even in my house with my lights on 50%, it fails to register a reading. This isn't even remotely dark or comparable to early morning/evening hunting, so there's no chance it would work in those situations. However, if you are in bright light, it does work well. I also wish the display had some sort of backlight, because again, in anything less than full brightness, it becomes impossible to use. As a golf rangefinder, this would be fine, but I wouldn't label it a hunting rangefinder due to it not being usable in common hunting situations.
