Game Changer!
on October 2, 2024
Posted by: jehavas46
I've played 5 rounds (so far) with this rangefinder and find it to be extremely accurate. The optics are very bright and clear. It's great to know the distance to the flag as well as the front and back of the green.

Mixed results so far

I've now played with it 4 times. First 2 times: flawless and awesome. Absolutely incredible! Next 2 times: multiple times I couldn't get it to give me yardage and a handful of times when it did, it didn't sync up the flag distance with the app/watch. Also, I left it once in the middle of the previous fairway - and couldn't get it to tell me where it was!

Best rangefinder on the market! And when used with a compatible Garmin golf watch it blows all other rangefinders away.

Great improvement

It works as advertised, it was easy to sink with my Garmin Finix 7. I shoot the flag from the cart and leave the rangefinder on metal rail of the cart. My friends are jealous

Love it. Accurate and fast when acquiring pins. Clear display. The integration to my Garmin watch is very useful.

GARMIN Z30

Bought this a couple of weeks ago. As with all my Garmin products experiences, I had high expectations. Not only did the Z30 meet my expectations, it exceeded them. Well done Garmin.

Solid Choice!

Have used a few rounds, and basically chose the Garmin over a Bushnell (I lost my V4 Shift) to complement my S70 watch. As a standalone rangefinder, I would say this is an upgrade from my V4 - built-in cart magnet, larger image in the viewfinder, and sharper/clear as well. I believe it has 6x mag vs the 4 or 5 x in the V4 Shift. Like my Bushnell, it does make slope adjustments. Also, the tournament mode on the Garmin is a little “safer” as it is controlled with a mode button on top which seems to be totally out of the way, versus the side slider on the V4 which was prone to being “unslid”. The Z30 also has an LED that activates in tournament mode so even your playing partners can see.
The added benefit here is the interaction with GPS and the S70 watch. When you lock on the pin with the rangefinder, it updates the watch with the same yardage, and will adjust as you move about so you don’t need to use the Z30 again on that hole. With watch and Garmin Golf App active, the rangefinder, will also give front/back distance to the pin through the lens. This can be very helpful, however, so far it seems that the graphic of the green on the watch showing pin position is not really representative of those front/back distances - the picture on the watch seems to always show a back pin ridiculously close to the front of the green. To be fair, this may just be a product of having only used the Z30 a few times. In summary, if you already have a compatible Garmin watch and want a rangefinder as well, then I really think this is your best choice.

Amazing!!

I bought it over a month ago and play 2-3 times a week. I say it’s shaved 3-4 strokes off my game. With the addition to the watch it’s a must have!!!
