Rangefinder Tested

Make: Blue Tees
Model: 3 Max

Technology:

The 3 Max laser boasts x7 magnification and includes an Adaptive Slope option, which takes the player’s elevation in comparison to your target into account and can be switched off when you play in official club competitions using the button on the side of the unit.

The Active Flag Lock function helps the laser quickly lock onto your intended target rather than a tree or object directly behind it and you get a gentle pulse to let you know when your target is secured. The rangefinder also has a range of 900+ yards and accuracy rate of +/- 1 yard and is also water resistant

The unit also has an Auto-Ambient Display which automatically adjusts colour to ensure that the display is crystal clear in all weather conditions. This is achieved because the unit automatically adjusts to the amount of light in the environment,

There is also a built-in magnetic strip that allows you to attach the rangefinder to the struts of a buggy, trolley, or any other metallic surface.

Conclusion:

I tested both the ladies' pink version and the men’s black version of the rangefinder. Both sat in my hands perfectly and I loved the design of the unit, but what I was most impressed with was the Active Flag Lock function. It really picks up the pin quickly and locks onto it; even with just as slight passing motion it will instantly pick it up.

As you look through the lens the display is crystal clear and playing in Turkey as the sun started to set, the Auto Ambient Display kicked in, keeping everything bright and easy to read.

The matt finish of both the pink and black cases give the rangefinder an exclusive feel. As I have not seen anything on the market like it and it comes with a magnetic strap to hold it in place while you are playing so you don’t have to zip the case up each time after use.

When you think that some rangefinders go for over £350 and the Blue Tees 3 Max goes for a price of £199 then you are getting a rangefinder that has all the features of the top brands on the market with a pin lock system that I feel is the best out there, but at a fraction of the cost.
