Default Bushnell yardage pro scout range finder

Iam considering buying a rangefinder. I may have a good deal on a Bushnell Yardage Pro Scout. Since I have never used or owned one, do any of you have any experience with this particular model? Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've had my pro scout for several years now, and I don't have any complaints about it.

I have an Bushnell Yardage Pro 800 and an Bushnell Yardage Pro Scout.
Both work very well for me. My son's also own Bushnell rangefinders.
When shopping for my 1st. rangefinder, my wife and I stopped in Mitchell, South Dakota at the Cabela's store to check them out. My wife, the store clerk and myself all agreed that the Bushnell was sharper optically than the Nikon model that I was interested in. My son purchased a Nikon and returned it after one outing, and purchased a Bushnell too. I was totally surprised that the Bushnell models out purformed the Nikon's, but every person had different vision.

I have the Bushnell 800 pro's as well and they do the job that I had hoped they would .I've had the same battery in mine since it was new 2 season's ago. It's a great piece of equip that every archer should own.

I use the bushnell scout for bowhunting and it works very well. I find it easy to use one handed. Which I find useful when one hand may be filled with a bow.

I use the pro scout also... perfect for bow hunting. Good qualityone handed sight. I've had mine 4 or 5 yrs and never have had a problem.

Mine has worked awesome for 4 years now. Only complaint that at real low light there is no l.e.d. readout so you CAN"T see the yardage readout. Not a big deal for a bowhunter as Ijust use mine to shoot various trees or landmarks in my area once in my stand.
