cheap, no bells and whistles, for hunting ranges only.
If you are looking for a cheap rangefinder for hunting this is it.
Its max range is 450 yards or so, but honestly if you go past 200 yards the rangefinder will kinda lag while your hand shakes trying to get a good scan on the target, so its better for hunting purposes rather than golf. If you are going to use it for golf, just use it for approach shots.
That being said, it has a scan function that takes forever to hold down the button to activate, that works well enough. The readings are in +-1 yard increments. My Nikon coolshot 80vr has .5 yard increments, so I noticed that the Halo was off by a yard most of the time. If you are finding your Archery gap and doing some short range shots, this may effect the size of your gap. This device has a slope function that is really helpful and nice.
The eye relief is poor, so if you wear glasses, you have to take your glasses off, or really jam the eye piece into your lens to get a clear picture. The 6x magnification would be better with a better eye relief. Also the display is really faint and hard to see in low light situations compared to bushnell, Nikon, leupold etc.
The weight is something like 3oz so that is definitely a plus. the physical shape of the device, although fits nicely in the hands, is awkward to find a generic neoprene cover or strap to protect it, since this product does NOT come with a case.
Buy if you want cheap, but effective and light rangefinder, this is the one.
