Nikon’s Latest Lightweight Laser Rangefinders Give Golfers Game-Changing Accuracy at a Great Value
MELVILLE, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 24, 2024 / Today, Nikon announced the latest models in its series of acclaimed laser rangefinders for golfers, the COOLSHOT 20i GIII and COOLSHOT 20 GIII. These new models are small in size but big on features, giving golfers confidence on the course with a clear and bright field of view, amazing accuracy, plus the added reassurance of Nikon’s LOCKED ON QUAKE technology.
Nikon’s newest laser rangefinder for golfers. Available mid-Feb for $199.95 and $239.95 MSPR
Despite their small size, these new models are packed with the latest tech. The LOCKED ON QUAKE function provides tactile confirmation to notify the user that the distance to the flagstick has been measured with a brief vibration. First Target Priority confirms the distance to the closest subject, assuring a measurement on the pin even with trees in the background. Thanks to a multilayer coating, the view from the 6x monocular is bright and clear, with a comfortable 16.7mm eye relief. Additionally, both models are IPX4 rated for rainproof performance.
The COOLSHOT 20i GIII model employs two measurement display modes: a golf mode (slope-adjusted distance and actual distance) and an actual distance mode. Switching modes is simple, with a single press of the mode button.
Key Features
- LOCKED ON QUAKE Technology1: A brief vibration to inform you that the distance to the flagstick has been measured
- Compact, lightweight (approx. 4.6oz.) body
- Measurement range: 6-800 yd

- Wide temperature tolerance: -10˚C to +50˚C/14˚F to 122˚F
