Every member of Team Legacy received a Callaway 300 Pro Laser Rangefinder at The Grandaddy this year, courtesy of @JasonFinleyCG / Callaway Golf. The version we we received was a limited edition model commemorating this year's Paradym launch, with a colorway that matches the blue forged carbon on the soles of the Paradym woods.

The rangefinder is very compact and fits the hand well. The knurled surfaces provide excellent grip, and the magnet on the right side is strong enough to hold it securely in place. It is powered by one CR2 Lithium battery. It comes included with a hard case, with both zippered and bungee closures and a carabiner for attachment to your golf bag.
The unit offers 6x magnification and a claimed range of 5-1000 yards, with accuracy of +/- 1 yard. It has a slope feature, which displays the raw and slope adjusted distances as well as the percent of incline/decline. The slope function can be turned on/off very easily by sliding the Callaway badge on the left side of the unit up/down. In the photo above, the green crescent visible above the badge shows that slope mode is enabled. The display shows 'Y' or 'M' next to your measurements (yards or meters), to confirm you have it on the desired setting.
There are two buttons located on top of the unit. One sets modes and the other is the power/fire button. The eyepiece is adjustable, and holds the adjustment securely. The device features Pin Acquisition (P.A.T.) with Pulse Technology, which locks on to flagsticks and emits a short vibration to indicate lock. It also has scan mode, which allows you to range multiple targets.
The display is very clear and the device locks onto targets immediately with a push of the power button. I've tested it against my Shot Scope Pro L2 and a friend's Bushnell, and the readings always agree within +/- 1 yard. I find it very easy to acquire pins even against background clutter, and the Pulse Technology jolt confirms lock to avoid confusion.
At an MSRP of $249.99, the Callaway 300 Pro is a solid contender in the rangefinder market. Its feature list, compact size, accuracy and speed put it on par with competitors costing significantly more money.
