2016/7/19 14:57:25


Taking your Laser Rangefinder on a golf vacation can turn a great experience into an unforgettable one. When you visit Arizona to play golf, you will want to try and shoot your best games while playing the many courses. If you have not used a Laser Rangefinder before, there are many options to rent one and try it out.

There are over 300 golf courses in the state of Arizona with varied terrain such as desert and alpine. The state also has some link courses.

Arizona golf vacations promise great amenities, long playing days with plenty of sunshine and championship courses. There is a wide range of public, semi private and private clubs to choose from.

Let's start small. The Adobe Dam Family Golf Center is a 9-hole executive walking course located at Glendale with a par-31 design. This Arizona golf vacations venue is great for lessons and is the site for the Phoenix Golf School. There is also a putting green, a pitching green with bunkers and an illuminated driving range. Using a rangefinder will almost always improve your game. A small course like this is perfect for honing your skills both with and without your rangefinder.

Try your laser rangefinder at the 500 Club. Located in in Phoenix, it has an 18-hole championship course with a par-72 layout. Carts are available for hire and come with GPS. Instruction is offered to individuals, including juniors, and to groups. This course is a favorite with players, attracted by the mountain views and excellent dining in the clubhouse and on the patio. This championship course provides some very challenging holes and you will find the use of a laser rangefinder invaluable.

The Falcon Golf Club at Litchfield Park is the perfect course for using a laser rangefinder. The 18-hole target style course requires great accuracy with desert type terrain. The par-71 course contains bunkers, water and trees, making it one of the more challenging courses on the Arizona golf vacations list. One of the best uses of a laser rangefinder to improve your game is by improving what you don't hit. By measuring distances to hazards, you can avoid them much easier. Practice facilities at the Falcon Golf Club include driving range, putting green and chipping green with green-side bunker.

The Gold Canyon Golf Resort at Apache Junction is 36-holes, set in terrific scenery, making it a popular choice for Arizona golf vacations. The Dinosaur Course goes over Dinosaur Mountain in the Sonoran Desert and gives great views of the Superstition Mountains. For real fun with your laser rangefinder try the Sidewinder. The second course at Gold Canyon goes around the base of Dinosaur Mountain. The landscape of cacti and mesquite make it an ideal course for taking advantage of your new laser rangefinder.

The Mesa Del Sol Golf course at Yuma is considered to be one of the most beautiful courses so be sure to take your eye away from the viewfinder once in a while. The 18-hole championship course was designed by the legendary Arnold Palmer and its par-72 layout is quite challenging. There are four practice putting greens and professional instruction is available. Amenities include a club rental service and an on-course beverage service.

You can use your laser rangefinder off the golf course too. Hunting and target shooting both benefit from the use of a laser rangefinder. It is even fun just to measure distances to far objects. In Arizona, the rugged scenery and Native American history present opportunities to explore the desert, the sites of old gold mines and perhaps, do a little hiking. Arizona also has one of the geological wonders of the world at the Grand Canyon. It is quite a thrill to measure distances to rocks and cliff faces to grasp the true size of the Arizona outdoors. Are you going to forget that mesa exactly 873' below you as you peer into the gaping chasm?

Make your next golf vacation something you won't forget. If you own a laser rangefinder, be sure to pack it with you when you go. If you don't, I recommend renting one for your vacation. You may be so impressed that you buy one of your own.
