Great Scope - And I've had a lot
on November 12, 2023
Posted by: chawba
Great range finder, especially if you like a lot of data. Yardage, picture of fairway and key obstacles, plus green reading and wind direction. Cool stuff.

Next Level Performance
on November 9, 2023
Posted by: Caddie named Stevie
I’ve owned several brands of range finders, this one is far superior. Because of the GPS and laser features, the amount of detail you get with one zap is amazing. Yardages with front/back/middle combined with flyover view of the hole/green to see carry distances makes decisions happen so much faster and gives wind direction so I’m super confident I have what I need to draw a club.
Your playing partners will ask how you are able to run through raw/slope/front/back/middle and cover distances so quickly without having to aim at multiple targets.
Another cool feature is that the display keeps the data on the screen until you reshoot a target so if you want to run through the numbers again you just look in the viewfinder without having to go back and reshoot a target.
Love this device.

Love the Z82
on November 1, 2023
Posted by: D.J.
All the features on this Garmin Z82 are incredible!!
The size, the features are next level.
One thing that really needs to be improved is the optics inside. Not high def and I won't say fuzzy but the engineers should definitely be working on improving this!

Actually Very DISAPPOINTED....
on November 1, 2023
Posted by: RupertPumkin
As a Looper & Golfer, of course, I've seen them all (lasers) & was actually very excited to have the Z82 for personal golf/golf trips, maybe even while "looping"... Hell no...!
Pros:
- Garmin Golf App links to Z82 (Personalized yardages to translate throughout on-course play)
- Tech Savvy
- Rechargeable (TBH I'd rather have batteries than to forget to charge)

Cons:
- Foresight is way TOO sensitive (Often times than not you MISS or "shoot" the perimeter or background of flagstick...)
- The "ON/OFF" & "IDLE/SLEEP" process is very very very inconvenient & annoying (Having to wait even a few seconds for it to load up is a drag/other lasers its instant!)
- Too much to think about while on-course.. Rather look through a yardage book than try to fiddle w/ "UP/DOWN" buttons to find hazards/bunkers/etc.
- Yearly/Monthly Subscription required to get best or "full" experience through the Garmin Golf App (Personalized yardages to translate throughout on-course play)

I bought this a few weeks before a golf trip and I am so glad that I did! All of the features are so helpful on the course and so easy to use!

Not impressed
on October 9, 2023
Posted by: Litt
I hated that there is no battery and I have to remember to charge it all the time. The features were ok, but can be a little busy when looking at targets. The Z82 is not for me.

Powerful tool that helps enhance the game
on October 5, 2023
Posted by: Mikelapadu
Purchased my Z82 to pair up with my S70 and CT10 sensors. It might seem a bit much but getting the extra details from the Z82 helps with choosing the right club. It’s not just the distance to the flag but how much room in front or back of the flag that lets me know if I have the right club in hand. Having a rechargeable battery is a definite plus! I’m in the habit of charging my speaker for my next round so I just add my Z82 to the lineup. Battery life has been exceptional and I definitely encourage you to consider this amazing range finder.
