Rangefinder dissappointing.......2007-05-13
I expected that the rangefinder would consistently give me a correct distance to the flag. Instead it often gives two or three different readings varying as much as one hundred yards. By using my common sense I can eliminate the 234 yard reading and settle on the 94 yard reading if I know I am around 100 yards out. Friends with the laser rangefinders that reflect off the flags that are so equipped, and friends with older model Bushnell rangefinders do not seem to have this problem. I tried to return this product but was told I could not because I did not have the original packaging. Conclusion: disappointing product and unacceptable return policy.
Rangefinder.......2007-05-13
Good Device and simple to use.
Beyond 150 yards it is difficult to get a yardage indication from the flag.
Inside 150 its dead on.
From yardages beyond 150 yards the device is accurate when viewing grass, bunkers, trees etc.
Makes the game a lot easier.......2007-01-17
The only trouble with this product is that it is very hard to pick up the flag from any distance. You generally have to use a trap (or a person on the green) to get distance to the flag. Otherwise, we've found this a very useful and easy to use tool.
Bushnell Yardage Pro Tour Laser Rangefinder.......2007-01-15
Excellent. Upgraded from Yardage Pro 400. This one is so small. Much more convenient than the 400. This one just clips on your bag. Works better as well. Even picks up those flags that are just hanging there on a overcast, windless day. The scan feature is nice to verify that you are zoning in on the proper target.
Critique.......2007-01-11
After 2 or 3 tries, I usually get the distance to the flag. However, it often picks up larger items behind the flagstick. I like the fact that I can measure to other items other than the flag (such as bunkers and water hazards.)

Works well in daylight.......2007-12-23
I bought these to give to the neighbors kids, but it only works well in daylight. I tried it at a concert and couldn't really make it work for me in the dark.
Nice Monocular.......2007-01-08
I needed to replace my broken compact binoculars. I decided to get Tascos Essential 10x25 monocular as it would fit better on my belt. I use it everyday for work (I do house inspections) and find that it is very nice to use. The image is large and clear and I love its small size.
It is quite powerful, for closer viewing I find I sometimes have to mover farther away! The rubber coating is useful as I've already dropped it a couple of times but there is no damage to the monocular or the image! The only negative is the soft case you get. Putting the monocular back into the case is sometimes a chore. A hard case or stiffer material would be better, but overall I am quite pleased with this item!

A good balance of price and quality.......2007-10-01
In spite of the tendency to promote high powered binoculars, the 7X35 wide angle remains the handiest size. Reasonably light and compact, and fine for daytime use.
I'm not a binocular connoisseur, but the Tasco binoculars defined the detail on quail in my yard just fine. I felt no eyestrain while using the pair. The focus is very quick and easy, a great improvement over the old kind, where you turn and turn a wheel.

Not a bad deal for the price........2006-07-05
It's a great deal. Walking around with it on takes some getting used to, but I can't complain. It's wild seeing deer walking around and eating the plums off the trees. I've taken back the night PEOPLE!;) Have fun all!
I'd like to see what the difference between Gen I and Gen II and III. But the price will keep me from being that curious.
Over hyped.......2006-03-01
The Bushnell night vision goggles, is a great pair of goggles for the price it is. Although its only Gen1 goggles it still is very useful. When I brought these from a retailer and proceeded to use them at night I found out that my goggles were actually second hand, but that is besides the point. The Bushnell goggles when used with combination headgear, can feel very bulky and uncomfortable in the prone upright position, but as soon as you push the button to unlock the twisting mechisism the googles feel quite lite and compfortable.
The night vision itself is ok at best. With moonlight only the night vision can be described as a fuzzy black and white blobs, very faint to the naked eye, but combined with the bulit in IR the imaculate glow of the green, is just amazing. With its limited range and ok night vision the bushnell goggles is not too bad, alothough the bulit in Bright light circuit can be a bit at times over sensitive. Over all the bushnell goggles is an ok buy if your looking for cheap affordable goggles, but in the near future my review my change due to the fact that my goggles were actually quite defective.
It would only work for a certain amount of time and then the image on display would disapper and not reappear until I have waited at least 5 mins, now I cannot speak for bushnell saying that it was the bright light circuit in effect. But that wasnt the case due to the fact that I was in compelete darkness, with IR mode on. I have searched everywhere for information about bushnell goggles having a bulit in power saving feature but that would be just silly. So I dont know what it is, I am going to replace my bushnell goggles with a new one, and see if those are better, until then this review is all I have to offer you until I get somemore NVG time, wirh my new pair.
Thanks for reading and hope I have helped.

You get what you pay for?.......2007-03-11
For the price, it's difficult to find fault with these binoculars. Tasco is evidently trying hard to make a high-value product (not just a toy) at an extremely competitive price. They are light, small, reasonably solid, and for the price I never worry about taking them into situations where they might get a little wet or a little mechanical abuse (e.g., bumps or scrapes).
So these would be a great choice for occasional or emergency use (e.g., to throw in a glove compartment or emergency bag, or to take hiking or backpacking), when having a small, lightweight, relatively high-power set of binoculars would be beneficial.
If you'll be using these for extended periods of time, I would encourage you to keep looking. The eye relief isn't great, so if you wear glasses you won't be able to see the full field of view. Also, and it could just be my pair, mine do not focus very sharply (spherical aberration?), especially at larger distances.
Also, be aware that these are probably best for active outdoors activities (hiking, hunting, etc.) in bright light -- if you can put up with the extra weight and cost, you might be better served by a pair with larger effective aperture and corresponding exit pupil (e.g., 10x42 or even 10x50) for pursuits like astronomy or (more sedentary) birding. This is not a criticism of these binoculars; they are designed to be 10x25, so the only thing I might complain about is the transmission of the AR coating, but that's simply not fair at this price point.
If you do get a pair, do some thorough field testing as soon as you get them, and return them if they don't suit your expectations.
Three stars may be too tough on these, but they're just not good enough optically to warrant more. Still, especially given their price, they're a whole lot better than nothing in a pinch.
5 STARS-These little binoculars are great...my extremely selective son just loves them, and they're an excellent value, to boot!.......2006-01-16
These binoculars are so superior to the Bushnell 4x30 Powerview model I just returned that they aren't in the same leage, from a quality standpoint (not to mention magnification). They gather more light, despite having a smaller objective lens, they focus with less fuss, the optical quality is an order of magnitude greater, and they look a heck of a lot cooler. In addition to all of that, they don't have a cheesy Bushnell logo that is so large, you would think I'm trying to sell them to you. The camouflage rubberized exterior is far more attractive, and they just work.
My son is an extremely...selective sort (like his father), and he really appreciates quality. Let's just say that he has nothing nice to say about his former Bushnell Powerviews and he sleeps with his new "security" binoculars (think security blanket). He absolutely loves them, and I believe they are his favorite Christmas present.
Oh, and for the price, these are truly a no-brainer. Just do it. You won't regret it. :)

Solid binocular for its size and price.......2005-09-09
Bought this for Alaska trip lately, and carried it to Alaska for wildlife viewing.
Pros:
- Small and lightweight
- Convenient carrying case, can be attached to your belt
- Fully clear optical - no discernible distortion even at the edge
- Very powerful at 12x
Cons:
- Dual focus adjustment. This is supposed to be a feature as for some people, their left and right eyes have different near sightedness. But to me it is annoying as I now have two adjustments to make instead of one.
