Get the most accurate reading within 10” of the flag with Garmin's Approach Z82 golf rangefinder
Unlike other golf laser rangefinders with traditional displays, the Approach Z82 lets you look at a digital display through the lens where you can see an overlay of the entire hole from above, while also getting a magnified (digital) view of the hole. Buy this high-end Garmin golf device risk-free on PlayBetter with FREE shipping (2-day) and FREE 60-day returns—no questions asked.
PRODUCT DETAILS
Approach Z82 laser range finder with GPS is the most accurate laser range finder available. It also gives you a new perspective on more than 41,000 courses worldwide. You actually see a full-color CourseView and Green View overlay in 2-D for the hole you’re playing, showing distances to the front and back of the green.
Then when you activate the laser range finder, you get an amazingly accurate distance to the pin — within 10”. Plus, you also see accurate distances to hazards at the same time. This speeds up play, because there’s no need to range them separately.
Approach Z82 automatically determines which hole you are currently playing to provide course layout and par information. Keep track and record your score in the Garmin Golf app, and get more accurate and reliable results on the course.
Everything that a Z80 does with the following additions
New Software Features:
- Scorecard support with Optical Stat tracking for GIR, # of putts, and Fairways hit %
- Measure shot distance with the option to save shots
- Bluetooth for scorecard sync and auto course updates
- Beacon location via Bluetooth for a new "find my rangefinder" feature
- Layup Targeting to move the laser range arc on the map to find a distance to a layup spot faster
New Hardware Improvements:
- A vibe motor to provide feedback when the laser has a distance to the flag
- Improved diopter adjustment ring so it doesn't turn more than 360 degrees and label it
- A more obvious label for the power button so we don't need a sticker on it
- Improved ranging performance so it hits the flag more often
- Improved viewfinder for golfers who wear glasses
- An external visual indicator that the device is in tournament mode
- The ability to wear the carrying case on your belt

Some Great Qualities...But A Little Disappointed
"Yes, it provides a great deal of data; however, have a few issues that are holding me back from loving it. First, I cannot fully trust the results. Say this because I'm getting some questionable feedback from the Garmin. First, to give context. I am 58 and a scratch golfer and have been a plus golfer for over 40 years...so when I say that my 9 iron should go 145...it should be decently close because that's my number. Well, the Garmin will occassionally say 159 when I know that it didn't go that far; heck, I can see that it didn't go that far. Equally it will give me a lower number than what I know it did. That said...while the balls I'm using on the range are not brand new ProV1's they are new soft cover Callaways...so some variance is allowed but this seemed excessive. I agree with the swing speeds the device provides. The main reason I purchased the Garmin was to work on shorter distances with wedges. Easy swings, 1/2 and 3/4 swings. This is the one area that the Garmin is weak on. Shots that I can see are going 65 yards show up as everything from 38 to 82. Given enough shots a bell curve appears with data you can use but the accuracy is unfortunately not there. On the Software side it would be nice to simply eliminate a shot if it was poorly hit or the yardage provided was obviously incorrect. This would make the data far more useful. The ability to have the device voice out data you request on each shot is a very nice feature. For example, you can have it provide Swing Speed or Carry Distance or really almost any other data on a shot after it is struck. So you don't have to go look at your phone to see what it was reading. For the price I the device is decent but it does not compete with more professional models. IMHO."
